Equipment

  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Medium bowl
  • Whisk
  • Large bowl
  • Electric mixer (optional)
  • Wire rack

Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Add-ins

  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt; set aside.

Mixing

  • In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips.

Baking

  • Drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are about 2 inches apart.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still slightly soft.
  • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For an extra chewy interior, underbake the cookies slightly. If you prefer crispier cookies, bake for an additional 1-2 minutes. Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes (or up to 24 hours) can also enhance the flavor and thickness of the cookies.
