Ingredients
For the Cookies:
1 cup cold butter, cubed
1 1/4 cups light brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Directions
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 410°F (210°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.
Cream Butter and Sugars
In a large bowl, use a hand mixer to cream together the cold cubed butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Mix until the mixture is light and fluffy, which should take about 2-3 minutes.
Add Eggs and Vanilla
Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next.
Stir in the vanilla extract, blending evenly throughout the mixture.
Combine Dry Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and kosher salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Mix until just combined—avoid overmixing to keep the cookies tender.
Fold in Chocolate Chips
Gently fold in the chocolate chips with a spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Form the Dough Balls
Scoop the dough into large balls, approximately 1/4 cup each.
Place the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring plenty of space between each cookie to allow for spreading.
Bake to Perfection
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes.
The edges should be golden, while the centers remain slightly soft and just set.
Cool and Serve
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the sheet for 5 minutes.
Transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy warm or store for later indulgence.
Why This Recipe Works
Cold Butter: Using cold butter creates a thick, bakery-style cookie with a denser texture.
High Temperature: Baking at 410°F ensures a golden exterior while maintaining a soft, gooey center.
Perfect Ratios: The balance of brown sugar and granulated sugar provides the ideal sweetness and chewiness.
Tips for Success
Chilling the Dough: For even better results, chill the dough balls for 30 minutes before baking.
Even Sizing: Use an ice cream scoop to create uniform dough balls for consistent baking.
Chocolate Variety: Mix in milk chocolate or dark chocolate chunks for added variety and flavor depth.
Serving Suggestions
Classic Pairing: Serve warm with a glass of cold milk.
Dessert Upgrade: Use the cookies as a base for ice cream sandwiches.
Party-Ready: Plate them with other cookie varieties for a stunning dessert tray.
Storage Tips
Room Temperature: Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
Freezer Storage: Freeze unbaked dough balls for up to 3 months. Simply bake straight from frozen, adding an extra minute to the baking time.
