Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Sugars

  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup white sugar

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Add-ins

  • 1 1/2 cups high-quality semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Cream the Butter and Sugars: Beat the softened unsalted butter with brown and white sugar until the mixture is light, fluffy, and well combined—this creates the perfect base for tender cookies.
  2. Add Eggs and Vanilla: Mix in the eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla extract to add moisture and enhance the overall flavor.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, and sea salt to ensure even distribution throughout the dough.
  4. Mix Dry and Wet Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined to keep the dough tender without overmixing.
  5. Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold the chocolate chips into the dough, making sure they are evenly spread for melty chocolate in every bite.
  6. Portion and Bake: Drop dough balls using a cookie scoop or spoon onto a parchment-lined baking tray, spacing them out for proper spreading. Bake at 180°C (350°F) for 10–12 minutes until edges are golden but centers remain soft.

Notes

  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes to prevent excessive spreading and enhance flavor.
  • Remove cookies from the oven when edges are set, but centers look slightly undercooked for gooey perfection.
  • Use fresh baking soda and high-quality vanilla extract for best flavor and proper rise.
  • Use a cookie scoop for uniform cookies that bake evenly and look professional.
  • Line baking trays with parchment paper or silicone mats to prevent sticking and promote even baking.
