Equipment
- Oven
- Mixing Bowls
- Baking Sheet
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup brown sugar packed
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 cups chocolate chips semi-sweet
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth and fluffy.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, and mix well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 9-11 minutes or until the edges are golden and the centers are set. The cookies will continue to cook as they cool on the baking sheet.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Store leftover cookies in an airtight container for up to a week. They also freeze well for longer storage.
