Equipment

  • Mixing Bowls
  • Hand or stand mixer
  • Baking sheets
  • Parchment paper
  • Measuring Cups and Spoons
  • Spatula
  • Cookie scoop

Ingredients

  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 cup unsalted butter room temperature
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup packed light-brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 cups semisweet and/or milk chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat the Oven:

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line your baking sheets with parchment paper.

Prepare the Dry Ingredients:

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour and baking soda. Set aside.

Mix the Wet Ingredients:

  • In a large bowl, using a hand mixer or stand mixer with a paddle attachment, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. This should take about 2-3 minutes.

Add the Eggs and Vanilla:

  • Add the salt, vanilla extract, and eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:

  • Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Fold in the Chocolate Chips:

  • Using a spatula, fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Scoop the Dough:

  • Use a cookie scoop or a tablespoon to drop dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Bake the Cookies:

  • Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden but the centers are still soft. The cookies will continue to cook on the baking sheet after being removed from the oven.

Cool the Cookies:

  • Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Tips for the Best Chocolate Chip Cookies:

  • For a richer flavor, brown the butter before creaming with the sugars.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes to prevent spreading.
  • Use a mix of semisweet and milk chocolate chips for a balanced sweetness.

Storage:

  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
  • Dough can be frozen for up to 3 months. Bake from frozen, adding an extra minute or two to the baking time.
