Ingredients
Method
- Preheat your oven to 375°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Cream the softened butter with both sugars in a large bowl using an electric mixer on medium speed for about 3 minutes.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, then mix 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 and mix on low speed until just combined.
- Fold in the chocolate chips with a wooden spoon or spatula.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 9-11 minutes until the edges are golden and the centers are slightly underdone.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
Notes
Ensure butter and eggs are at room temperature for better blending. Use parchment paper to prevent sticking. Measure flour correctly to avoid dry cookies. Underbake slightly for a chewy texture.
