Ingredients
-
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
-
1 cup granulated sugar
-
1 cup packed brown sugar
-
2 large eggs
-
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
-
3 cups all-purpose flour
-
1 teaspoon baking soda
-
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
-
1/2 teaspoon salt
-
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
-
In a large bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
-
Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
-
In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
-
Fold in the chocolate chips.
-
Drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
-
Bake for 9–11 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers look slightly underbaked.
-
Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
Notes
-
For extra gooey centers, slightly underbake the cookies and let them finish setting on the tray.
-
Chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking for thicker cookies.
-
Swap some chocolate chips for chopped nuts or white chocolate for a twist.
-
Store cookies in an airtight container for up to 5 days or freeze for longer storage.
