How to Make Classic Chocolate Chip Cookies

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 3 cups (375g) all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar and 3/4 cup (150g) packed brown sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy (about 3-5 minutes).
  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 on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Stir in 2 cups (300g) chocolate chips and 1 cup (100g) chopped walnuts (optional).
  7. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  8. Bake for 9-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still slightly soft. Keep a close eye on them as oven temperatures can vary.
  9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
