Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and baking soda. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and salt until the mixture is smooth and fluffy.
  4. Beat in the vanilla extract and eggs, mixing until everything is well combined.
  5. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in the semisweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  7. Drop large balls of dough (about 1/4 cup each) onto baking sheets lined with parchment paper, spacing them a few inches apart for even baking.
  8. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. The centers may appear slightly underbaked; they will continue to cook as they cool.
  9. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Ensure butter is softened. For thicker cookies, chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking.
