Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • Unsalted butter, softened
  • Brown sugar
  • Granulated sugar
  • All-purpose flour
  • Baking soda
  • Salt
  • Vanilla extract
  • Large eggs
  • Good-quality chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Prepare the wet ingredients: Cream together softened unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by vanilla extract to infuse warmth and sweetness into the dough.
  2. Mix the dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt to evenly distribute leavening and seasoning throughout the dough.
  3. Combine wet and dry mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, folding gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing to prevent tough cookies.
  4. Fold in chocolate chips: Stir in a generous amount of high-quality chocolate chips, ensuring every spoonful of dough has delicious pockets of chocolate.
  5. Chill the dough: Cover and refrigerate the dough for at least 30 minutes to solidify the fat and prevent spreading, achieving perfect chewy edges.
  6. Bake to perfection: Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto a lined baking tray, spaced evenly. Bake at 175°C (350°F) for 10 to 12 minutes until edges are golden but centers remain soft. Allow to cool slightly on the tray before serving.

Notes

  • Use room temperature butter for better creaming with sugars, resulting in fluffier cookies.
  • Do not skip chilling the dough as it enhances flavor and improves texture.
  • Measure flour correctly by spooning and leveling to avoid dry cookies.
  • Choose quality chocolate chips for optimal chocolate flavor.
  • Remove cookies from the oven when edges are golden and centers look slightly underbaked for best chewiness.
