Delicious Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe

Cook Time 12 minutes
Total Time 27 minutes

Ingredients
  

Let's gather the ingredients!
  • 2 sticks unsalted butter softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar packed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 2 cups chocolate chips

Instructions
 

Let's Begin!
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  6. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still slightly soft.
  8. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
