Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 0.75 cup light brown sugar (packed)
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar together using a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium speed until light and creamy, about 2 minutes.
Step 3
Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Mix on low speed until just combined—do not overmix.
Step 6
Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon.
Step 7
Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Slightly flatten the tops of the dough balls with the back of a spoon.
Step 8
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8–10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers look slightly undercooked.
Step 9
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Enjoy your tender, crispy chocolate chip cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage!
