Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Position a rack in the center of your oven and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth and slightly fluffy, about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla until the batter is glossy and smooth.
- In another bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and salt; gradually blend this into the creamed mixture.
- Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
- Drop large tablespoons of dough onto ungreased baking sheets, spacing them apart.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and centers look slightly soft.
- Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
Notes
Using real unsalted butter enhances the flavor. Letting the dough rest will yield a softer crumb.
