Chocolate Chips

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that the cookies bake evenly.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

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

Mixing

  1. 3

    Cream Butter and Sugars

    In a large mixing bowl, beat together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar using an electric mixer on medium speed until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.

  2. 4

    Add Eggs and Vanilla

    Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then mix in the vanilla extract until fully incorporated.

  3. 5

    Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

    Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

  4. 6

    Fold in Chocolate Chips

    Using a spatula, gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Baking

  1. 7

    Scoop Dough

    Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of cookie dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving space between each cookie.

  2. 8

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers are still soft.

  3. 9

    Cool Cookies

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