Ingredients:

  • 1 cup (225g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup (150g) granulated white sugar
  • 3/4 cup (150g) packed brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 2 tsp (10ml) pure vanilla extract
  • 2 1/4 cups (280g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp (5g) baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp (3g) salt
  • 2 cups (340g) semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and both sugars together using a mixer for 2-3 minutes until the mixture is pale and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
  4. Sift in the flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix on low speed just until the flour streaks disappear.
  5. Gently fold in the chocolate chips with a spatula.
  6. Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough (about 2 tbsp per cookie) onto a prepared baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart.
  7. Bake for 10 minutes. Remove when edges are golden but centers still look slightly underbaked and soft.
