Ingredients
  

  • 2½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ¾ tsp baking soda
  • tsp salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • -Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
    -In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
    -In a large bowl, cream the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 2–3 minutes).
    -Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
    -Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
    -Fold in the chocolate chips evenly.
    -Scoop cookie dough using a cookie scoop and place on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
    -Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the centers are just set.
    -Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

  • Don’t overmix the dough once the dry ingredients are added — this helps keep the cookies soft and tender.
  • Chilling the dough for 30 minutes before baking can help prevent spreading and enhance the flavor.
  • Use a cookie scoop for evenly sized cookies that bake consistently.
  • Let the cookies rest on the baking sheet for 5 minutes after baking — they’ll continue to set as they cool.
  • For gooier centers, slightly underbake the cookies and let them finish setting on the pan.
  • Swap in your favorite chips! Milk chocolate, dark chocolate, or even white chocolate chips work beautifully.
  • Make it Disney-sized! Use a large scoop for big, bakery-style cookies and adjust bake time by 2–3 minutes.
  • Freeze extra dough in scoops for a quick, fresh-baked cookie anytime — just add a minute or two to the bake time.
