Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large eggs
- 2½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt (or sea salt)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup packed light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups chocolate chips (use a mix of semisweet and dark)
- 14 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted and slightly cooled)
- Optional for topping: Extra chocolate chips and flaky sea salt
Instructions
- Mix the dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
- Prepare the wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix the melted butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract until creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing after each addition.
- Combine and fold: Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients and gently fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
- Chill the dough: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Scoop and shape: Use a cookie scoop or spoon to portion the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.
- Bake: Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are just golden but the centers remain soft.
- Cool and set: Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
Notes
For added flavor, experiment with nuts, zesty citrus, or caramel swirls in the cookie dough. Store in an airtight container for optimal freshness.
