Ingredients
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
Gradually stir in the flour, baking soda, and salt until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Gently fold in the chocolate chips by hand.
Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets.
Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers still look slightly soft.
Notes
Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
For an even chewier texture, chill your dough for 30 minutes before baking.
Use dark chocolate chunks instead of chips for a richer flavor profile.
