How to Make Best Ever Chocolate Chip Cookies

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1 teaspoon salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, ¾ cup granulated sugar, and ¾ cup packed brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Stir in 2 cups chocolate chips (or more, if you like!).
  7. Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
  8. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still slightly soft. They will continue to bake slightly as they cool on the sheet.
  9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
