Units Scale

    Ingredients:

  • 1 cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • 1 cup brown sugar (packed)
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven and prepare baking sheets: Preheat oven to 350°F and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Cream butter and sugars: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add eggs and vanilla: Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each, then mix in the vanilla extract.
  4. Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cornstarch.
  5. Combine wet and dry mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and mix just until combined.
  6. Stir in chocolate chips: Fold in the chocolate chips evenly.
  7. Bake cookies: Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto prepared baking sheets. Bake for 9–11 minutes.
  8. Cool and enjoy: Let cookies cool on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For thicker cookies, chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking.
  • You can use a mix of chocolate chunks and chips for extra texture and flavor.
