How to Make Always Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 1/4 cups (280g) all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 cup (200g) packed light brown sugar.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened, and 3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Stir in 2 cups (300g) chocolate chips.
  6. Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving 2 inches between each cookie.
  7. Bake for 11-12 minutes for chewy cookies, or 13-14 minutes for crispier cookies, or until the edges are golden brown.
  8. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Enjoy! Makes approximately 2-3 dozen cookies.
