Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients:
- 2 ½ cups of all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients:
- 1 cup of unsalted butter (softened)
- 1 cup of granulated sugar
- ½ cup of packed brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Add-ins:
- 1 ½ cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips
- Optional: 1 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. - Mix the Dry Ingredients:
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside. - Cream the Butter and Sugars:
In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy (about 3-5 minutes). - Add the Eggs and Vanilla:
Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated. Then, add the vanilla extract and mix until smooth. - Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing slowly until combined. Be careful not to overmix. - Fold in Chocolate Chips and Nuts:
Gently fold in the chocolate chips and chopped nuts (if using), ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough. - Shape the Cookies:
Use a cookie scoop or spoon to drop rounded dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie. - Bake the Cookies:
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still soft. - Cool and Enjoy:
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve and enjoy!
Notes
Refrigerate for Thicker Cookies:
For thicker, more flavorful cookies, chill the dough for 30 minutes to 1 hour before baking.
