Full Recipe:

Ingredients

• 1 cup (226 g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature

• 3/4 cup (150 g) granulated sugar

• 3/4 cup (165 g) packed brown sugar

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

• 2 large eggs, at room temperature

• 2 1/4 cups (280 g) all purpose flour

• 1 teaspoon baking soda

• 1/2 teaspoon salt

• 2 cups (340 g) semi sweet chocolate chips

Directions

1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.

2. Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

3. Add Eggs and Vanilla: Mix in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Stir in the vanilla extract.

4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.

5. Mix Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix to maintain a tender texture.

6. Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold the semi-sweet chocolate chips into the dough using a spatula.

7. Shape and Bake: Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers remain soft.

8. Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
