Homemade Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients:

  • 2 ¼ cups (280g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 cup (230g) unsalted butter, softened
  • ¾ cup (150g) granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup (165g) brown sugar, packed
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 cups (340g) semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Dough:

    • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
    • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
    • In a large bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
  2. Combine Ingredients:

    • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  3. Shape the Cookies:

    • Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  4. Bake:

    • Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are slightly soft.
    • Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
