  3. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 3/4 cup granulated sugar and 3/4 cup packed brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Mix well.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Stir in 2 tablespoons orange zest and 1 cup vanilla chips.
  7. Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
