How to Make Rich Chocolate Chip Cookies

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon. Set aside.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and ½ teaspoon salt. Set aside.
  4. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened, and ¾ cup granulated sugar and ¾ cup packed brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  5. Add the wet ingredients (eggs, vanilla, and salt) to the creamed butter and sugar mixture. Beat until well combined.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  7. Stir in 2 cups chocolate chips and 1 cup chopped nuts (optional).
  8. Cover the bowl and chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 days).
  9. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  10. Roll rounded tablespoons of dough into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
  11. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still slightly soft.
  12. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 1-2 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
