Cookie Ingredients
Method
Cookie Directions
- 1
Preheat the Oven
Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that your cookies bake evenly.
- 2
Prepare the Dough
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- 3
Add Eggs and Vanilla
Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then stir in the vanilla extract until evenly combined.
- 4
Combine Dry Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt until thoroughly mixed.
- 5
Mix Wet and Dry Ingredients
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- 6
Fold in Chocolate Chips
Gently fold in the chocolate chips until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- 7
Scoop and Shape Cookies
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto ungreased baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- 8
Bake the Cookies
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may appear soft but will firm up as they cool.
- 9
Cool and Serve
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve warm or store in an airtight container.
