Ingredients

  • 1 ¾ cups (210 g) all-purpose flour spooned & leveled
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup (2 sticks, 226 g) unsalted butter melted and slightly cooled
  • 1 ¼ cup (250 g) granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup (50 g) packed light brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups (255 g) mini semi-sweet chocolate chips or chopped chocolate

Instructions

  • Prepare oven and pan. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180℃).
  • Combine dry ingredients. In a medium bowl whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside. 1 ¾ cups (210 g) all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon salt
  • Combine wet ingredients. In a large bowl, whisk melted butter and both sugars until smooth and glossy and no sugar lumps remain. Whisk in eggs and vanilla until fully incorporated. 1 cup (2 sticks, 226 g) unsalted butter 1 ¼ cup (250 g) granulated sugar ¼ cup (50 g) packed light brown sugar 2 large eggs 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • Combine dry and wet ingredients. Add dry ingredients and mix just until combined. Fold in chocolate chips. Let dough sit for 10 minutes just to thicken enough to scoop. 1 ½ cups (255 g) mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • Bake. Scoop 1½ Tablespoons dough, spacing 3 inches apart. These cookies spread a lot so I recommend only baking about 6 per cookie sheet. Bake at 350°F (180°C) for 13-15 minutes, until deep golden brown across the whole cookie. Remove from the oven and let cool completely. Let cookies cool on the pan — they crisp as they cool.

Notes

  • Storage: Store at room temperature for up to a week covered.
  • Freezing: You can freeze baked cookies for up to 3 months at room temperature. Freeze unbaked cookies for up to 3 months. Bake frozen (no need to thaw). You may need to add on a few minutes of baking time. I like to bake at 325oF when frozen so they spread the same.
