How to Make Simply The Best Chocolate Chip Cookies Ever

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 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 and 2 tablespoons milk.
  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 chunks!), and ½ cup chopped nuts (optional).
  7. Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  8. Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still slightly soft. Baking time may vary depending on your oven.
  9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
