Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 1/4 cups (280 grams) all-purpose flour
- 2 cups (340 grams) semisweet chocolate chips
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup (227 grams) unsalted butter, softened
Sweeteners:
- 3/4 cup (150 grams) granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup (165 grams) packed brown sugar
Leavening and Seasoning:
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Prepare a workspace with all ingredients and preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) for optimal cookie baking.
- Whisk together the dry ingredients – flour, baking soda, and salt – in a separate bowl to ensure even distribution of leavening agents.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and both sugars until the mixture becomes light and fluffy, incorporating air for a softer texture.
- Add vanilla extract and eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition to create a smooth, homogeneous batter.
- Gradually fold the dry ingredient mixture into the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined to prevent overmixing.
- Gently incorporate chocolate chips, distributing them evenly throughout the cookie dough for consistent flavor in each bite.
- Use a cookie scoop or spoon to drop rounded portions of dough onto ungreased baking sheets, leaving enough space between cookies for spreading.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, watching for golden brown edges that indicate perfect doneness.
- Remove from oven and let cookies rest on the baking sheet for 2-3 minutes before transferring to wire cooling racks to complete the cooling process.
Notes
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking to prevent spreading and enhance flavor depth.
- Use high-quality chocolate chips or chunks for a more luxurious taste and texture.
- Experiment with different chocolate varieties like dark, milk, or a mix for unique flavor profiles.
- For a gluten-free version, substitute all-purpose flour with a 1:1 gluten-free baking blend.
