Instructions
- Heat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper or lightly grease with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer to cream together 1 cup salted butter, 1 cup dark brown sugar, and 1/2 cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 to 3 minutes. Be sure to mix the full amount of time for the best texture.
- Add in 2 large eggs and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract. Beat on medium speed until smooth, about 30 seconds.
- Sprinkle 1 teaspoon baking soda and 1/2 teaspoon salt across the top of the mixture and add 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour. Mix on low speed just until the final specks of flour disappear.
- Using a spatula or wooden spoon, stir in 2 cups chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
- Scoop about 2 tablespoons of dough per cookie, gently roll into balls with your hands, and place on the prepared baking sheets, spacing 12 cookies per sheet.
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops are ever so lightly kissed with golden brown. Do not overbake.
- Remove from oven and let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Store completely cooled cookies in an airtight container. Cookies stay fresh for 3 to 5 days.
- To freeze, shape into balls and freeze on a baking sheet. Once frozen, transfer to a resealable plastic freezer bag for long term storage, up to 3 months. When ready to bake, place cookie dough onto baking sheet and let thaw while oven preheats. Bake approximately 12 to 15 minutes.
