Ingredients
  

  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions
 

The Art Of Mixing:

  • Preparing The Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  • Creaming The Butter And Sugars: In a separate bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, light brown sugar, and vanilla extract until the mixture is light and fluffy.
  • Incorporating The Eggs: Add the large eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. This step ensures a smooth and cohesive dough.
  • Gradually Adding Dry Ingredients: Gradually incorporate the dry ingredient mixture into the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  • Adding Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips, distributing them evenly throughout the dough.

Baking To Perfection:

  • Preheating The Oven: Preheat your oven to the recommended temperature.
  • Forming Cookie Dough Balls: Using a cookie scoop, portion out the dough and roll it into balls. Place them on a baking sheet, leaving enough space for spreading.
  • Baking Time: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven until they are golden brown around the edges but slightly soft in the center.
