Method
Preparation
Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Prep Baking Sheets
Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
Mixing
Combine Dry Ingredients
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
Cream Butter and Sugars
In a large bowl, using a hand mixer or stand mixer, cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add Eggs and Vanilla
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract, mixing until fully incorporated.
Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
Add Chocolate Chips
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips using a spatula or wooden spoon until evenly distributed.
Baking
Scoop Dough
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving space between each cookie.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. The centers may look slightly underbaked.
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
