Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 14 tablespoons unsalted butter (softened) Should be softened to room temperature
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup light brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2½ cups all-purpose flour Add extra flour if the dough is too wet
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt or sea salt

Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or spray them with non-stick spray.
- Partially melt the butter: You can microwave it halfway or place it in a metal bowl in the preheating oven until it’s half melted. Let the butter cool.
- In a bowl, beat the cooled butter with the granulated sugar and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Mix in the vanilla and eggs one at a time.
- Add the flour, baking soda, and salt to the mixture. Mix on low speed until everything is combined.
- If the dough is too wet, add flour one tablespoon at a time, but no more than three extra tablespoons.
- Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Scoop the dough onto the baking sheets, using 1/4 cup for large cookies or 1.5 tablespoons for medium cookies. Leave space between each scoop for spreading.
- Press them slightly and add extra chocolate chips on top if you like.
Baking
- Bake one tray at a time: approximately 10–12 minutes for large cookies and 8–9 minutes for small cookies.
- Allow the cookies to cool on a wire rack.
Storage
- Store the cookies in an airtight container. This recipe makes 1 dozen large cookies or 2 dozen small cookies.
Notes
These cookies are best served warm, right out of the oven. You can enjoy them as they are or pair them with a glass of milk for a classic experience. To keep your cookies fresh, store them in an airtight container.
