Method
Baking Directions
- 1
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that the cookies bake evenly.

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

Cream Butter and Sugars
In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together using an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- 4
Add Eggs and Vanilla
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then stir in the vanilla extract.

Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined.

Fold in Chocolate Chunks
Using a spatula, gently fold in the chocolate chunks until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Scoop the Dough
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

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

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