Ingredients

  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour and baking soda.
  3. In a separate large bowl, beat the butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, salt, and vanilla extract until creamy.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  5. Gradually mix in the flour mixture until just combined, then fold in the chocolate chips.
  6. Drop tablespoon-sized dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
  8. Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Interesting Facts

  • Creaming the butter and sugars together helps create a soft and chewy texture in the cookies.
  • Using room temperature butter ensures that the cookies bake evenly and have the perfect consistency.
  • These cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week, but they are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven.
