Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Prepare Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
Combine Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, cream softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, add vanilla extract, and mix until smooth.
Mix the Dough: Gradually stir dry ingredients into the wet mixture until combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
Bake: Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 9–11 minutes until edges are golden and centers are slightly underbaked.
Cool: Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For extra chewiness, refrigerate the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking.
Try swapping chocolate chips for chunks or adding chopped nuts for variety.
Cookies will remain soft for days when stored in an airtight container.
