- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- Prepare the Dough:
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.

- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
- Mix Dry and Wet Ingredients:
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Shape the Cookies:
- Using a cookie scoop or a tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers are still soft.
- Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Tips
- Butter Temperature: Make sure your butter is softened, not melted. Softened butter will cream better with the sugars, resulting in a better texture.
- Cookie Size: If you prefer larger cookies, you can use a larger scoop and bake them a minute or two longer.
- Storage: Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. You can also freeze them for longer storage.
