Dry Ingredients:
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients:
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Add-ins:
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat oven to 375°F and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, beat softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in vanilla extract.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Fold in chocolate chips.
- Bake: Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 9–11 minutes, or until edges are golden and centers are just set.
- Cool: Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For chewy cookies, underbake slightly and let them finish setting on the pan.
- Dough can be chilled ahead of time or frozen for later use.
