Method
Preparation
- 1
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it is hot enough for baking.

Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking soda, salt, and baking powder until fully combined.

Cream Butter and Sugar
In a separate bowl, cream the softened unsalted butter with both sugars until light and fluffy. This should take about 2-3 minutes with an electric mixer.

Add Wet Ingredients
Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then stir in the vanilla extract.

Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Adding Mix-ins and Baking

Fold in Mix-ins
Gently fold in the chocolate chips, chopped nuts, and dried fruits if using, until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Prepare Baking Sheets
Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

Scoop Dough
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.

Bake Cookies
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. The centers may look slightly underbaked, but they will continue to cook as they cool.

Cool and Store
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container.
