METHOD
Why It Works
Simple dough and quick baking.
Quick Fixes
Spreading too thin: Chill the dough 30 minutes before baking. Also check that butter wasn't too warm when creaming.
Too cakey: Use melted butter instead of softened for chewier cookies, and don't overmix after adding flour.
Ingredients
—
—
2 1/4 cups flour
—
—
1 cup softened butter
—
—
¾ cup granulated sugar
—
—
2 eggs
—
—
2 cups chocolate chips
—
—
¾ cup packed brown sugar
—
—
½ tsp salt
—
—
1 tsp baking soda
—
—
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
How to Make It
1
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
2
In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2–3 minutes.
3
Add the eggs and vanilla extract and beat until combined. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture and mix until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
4
Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart.
5
Bake for 9–11 minutes until the edges are set and lightly golden but the centers still look slightly underdone. Cool on the pan for 5 minutes — they firm up as they cool.
