Best Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients:

• 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
• 2 large eggs
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
3. In a large bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
4. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
6. Fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula.
7. Scoop 1-2 tablespoons of dough per cookie onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
8. Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers are still soft.
9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 2 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
