Ingredients
2 1/4
cups
all purpose flour
1
tsp
baking soda
1
tsp
salt
1
cup
butter
softened (2 sticks)
3/4
cup
granulated white sugar
3/4
cup
dark brown sugar
(packed)
1
tsp
vanilla extract
2
large
eggs
2
cups
chocolate chips
(12oz)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F.
Mix together the flour, baking soda and salt in bowl, set aside.
Using a stand mixer, or large bowl with a hand mixer, cream the butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla until fluffy.
Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each egg.
Reduce speed, and gradually mix in the flour mixture.
Stir in chocolate chips.
Use a small cookie scoop, and scoop onto ungreased baking sheets - 2 inches apart. Don't flatten!
Bake for 9 to 11 minutes or until golden brown.
Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool.
If freezing
Go through to Step 7, then place the cookie sheets in the freezer until hard.
Put the uncooked dough balls in a zip loc bag, label it, and place back in the freezer until needed.
To cook - pull out the number of cookies you need, and put them (still frozen) onto a cookie sheet.
Bake at 350 for 11-13 minutes, cool on the baking sheet for 2 minutes, then remove to wire racks and cool
Notes
Bake one sheet at a time. If you MUST bake 2, space the racks apart, and rotate the cookie sheets half way through baking.
Use a cookie scoop for evenly sized cookies.
Switch out the chocolate chips for white chocolate, dark chocolate - or a mix of all three types!
Don't flatten these cookies - just scoop and bake. Allow plenty of space between the cookies for spreading.
