Prep Time 1 hour 20 minutes
Cook Time 12 minutes
Servings 24 cookies

Ingredients

  • 16oz (226g) unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 1 ¼ Cup (240g) dark brown sugar, firmly packed
  • ½ Cup (100g) granulated sugar
  • 2 Teaspoons (10g) vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 1/3 Cups (250g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 Teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 Teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 ½ Cups (370g) semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs and vanilla until fully incorporated.

  2. Whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt and mix into the sugar and butter mixture until fully incorporated. Do not over-mix to prevent dough from becoming bread-like and chewy.

  3. Fold in the chocolate chips. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for 1 to 4 hours. For the best results, chill overnight.

  4. Preheat oven to 375°F/190°C.
  5. In heaping tablespoons, drop cookie dough onto a parchment lined cookie sheet, giving each cookie at least four inches of space between each other.
  6. Bake cookies in the middle of the oven for 12 to 15 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Cookies are ready when the center still looks a little raw. Cookie will continue to bake as it cools.
