Method
Preparation
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures the cookies bake evenly.
Combine Dry Ingredients
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
Mixing
Cream Butter and Sugars
In a large mixing bowl, using a hand mixer or stand mixer, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
Add Eggs and Vanilla
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, stir in the vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
Combine Mixtures
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing just until combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in Chocolate Chips
Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips using a spatula until evenly distributed.
Baking
Scoop the Dough
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers look slightly underbaked.
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
