Baking Instructions
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
Cream Butter and Sugars
In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy.
Add Eggs and Vanilla
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Combine Mixtures
Gradually blend in the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in Chocolate Chips
Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto ungreased baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for 9 to 11 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
Cool Down
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
