by

These classic chocolate chip cookies are the perfect balance of soft and chewy with just the right amount of crispness around the edges. Packed with gooey semisweet chocolate chips, they’re the ultimate comfort food that will melt in your mouth with every bite.

  1. Ingredients:
    • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
    • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
    • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
    • 1 cup packed brown sugar
    • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
    • 2 large eggs
    • 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
    • 1/2 teaspoon salt (optional)
    Directions:
    1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
    2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
    3. In a large bowl, cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together using an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
    4. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
    5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
    6. Fold in the chocolate chips.
    7. Drop tablespoon-sized portions of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
    8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown, but the centers are still soft.
    9. Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
