Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp fine sea salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup light brown sugar packed
- 2 large eggs at room temperature
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and fine sea salt until well combined.
- In a large bowl, use an electric mixer on medium speed to cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until the mixture is light, fluffy, and pale in color, about 2-3 minutes.
- Beat in the room-temperature eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed until the mixture is smooth.
- Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips with a spatula until they are evenly distributed.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
- Bake for 9 to 11 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers appear soft and slightly underdone.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
