Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup butter softened
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Soften 1 cup of butter and beat it with both granulated and brown sugars on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 1-2 minutes. This step aerates the batter for chewy cookies.
- Mix in 2 eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Then add 1 1/2 teaspoons of vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon salt, and 3 cups of flour.
- With the mixer on low speed, slowly add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Use a rubber spatula to gently fold in 12 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips.
- Scoop rounded tablespoon-sized balls of dough and space them 2 inches apart on the baking sheets.
- Bake at 375°F for 8-10 minutes until lightly browned at the edges.
- Allow to cool on the baking sheet for 1 minute before moving to a wire rack. Enjoy!

Notes
Use room temperature butter for proper creaming. Cold butter won’t cream properly.
Don’t overmix the dough, which can cause tough cookies. Mix just until combined.
