Method
Preheat and prep
- 1
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
Prepare dry ingredients
- 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined.
Cream butter and sugars
- 3
In a large bowl, beat the unsalted butter with granulated sugar and brown sugar on medium-high speed until light and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add eggs and vanilla
- 4
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, then mix in the vanilla extract.
Combine wet and dry
- 5
Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed just until combined.
Fold in chocolate chips
- 6
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Chill dough (optional)
- 7
If time allows, cover the dough and chill for 30 minutes to help cookies hold shape during baking.
Bake
- 8
Scoop generous tablespoons of dough (or use a small cookie scoop) onto the prepared sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart.
- 9
Bake for 9-11 minutes, until edges are lightly golden. Centers may look slightly soft.
- 10
Let cookies cool on the sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
