Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius) and line three baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt, then set aside.
- Cream together the softened butter and both sugars in a large bowl until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then add the pure vanilla extract and mix until just combined.
- Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined and no flour streaks remain.
- Fold in the chocolate chips until they are evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough.
- Roll 2-3 Tablespoons of dough into balls and place them evenly spaced on the prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for approximately 8-10 minutes in the preheated oven, removing them when they are just barely starting to turn brown.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack to cool completely.
Notes
Do not overbake the cookies; they should be just barely starting to turn brown for a soft, chewy texture. Allowing them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes helps them set before transferring to a cooling rack.
