Dry Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt until well combined.

Mixing

  1. 3

    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.

  2. 4

    Add Eggs and Vanilla

    Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, mix in the vanilla extract until combined.

  3. 5

    Combine with Dry Ingredients

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.

Finishing Touches

  1. 6

    Add Chocolate Chips

    Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

  2. 7

    Scoop Dough

    Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Baking

  1. 8

    Bake the Cookies

    Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. The centers may look slightly underbaked; they will firm up as they cool.

  2. 9

    Cool the Cookies

    Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
