Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 14 tablespoons unsalted butter softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 0.5 cup light brown sugar
  • 2 eggs eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2.5 cups all-purpose flour + a few extra tablespoons
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt or sea salt
  • 3 cups chocolate chips any variation of chocolate chips or chocolate chunks

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line baking sheets with parchment or spray with non-stick spray.
  2. Partially melt butter: microwave it halfway or place it in a metal bowl in the preheating oven until half melted. Let cool.
  3. Beat cooled butter with sugars until light and fluffy. Mix in vanilla and eggs one at a time.
  4. Add flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix on low until combined. If dough is too wet, add flour 1 tablespoon at a time (no more than 3 tablespoons extra).
  5. Fold in chocolate chips. Scoop dough (1/4 cup for large cookies, 1.5 tablespoons for medium) onto baking sheets, spacing for spreading. Press slightly and add extra chocolate chips on top if desired.
  6. Bake one tray at a time: 10–12 minutes for large cookies, 8–9 minutes for small. Cool on a wire rack.

Notes

For an extra chewy texture, chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking.
