Ingredients
- 2.25 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Unsalted butter (softened)
- 0.75 cup Brown sugar (packed)
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 2 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon Flaky sea salt (for sprinkling)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Use a hand or stand mixer to beat the ingredients until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 4
Add the eggs one at a time to the butter-sugar mixture, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 6
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips using a spatula or spoon until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Step 7
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 8
Sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt on top of each cookie dough mound.
Step 9
Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers look slightly underbaked. Cookies will continue to set as they cool.
Step 10
Remove the cookies from the oven and let cool on the baking sheets for 3-5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 11
Serve warm or at room temperature with a glass of milk, and enjoy!
