Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large eggs
- 2½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup packed light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups chocolate chips (semisweet and dark mix)
- 14 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted and slightly cooled)
- Optional: Extra chocolate chips and flaky sea salt
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined.
- In a separate bowl, combine the melted butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until creamy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, stirring until each is thoroughly incorporated.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, folding until just combined.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least an hour.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line your baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Using a large cookie scoop, portion the dough into large balls and space them out on the prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes until the edges are golden brown and centers are slightly underbaked.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
Notes
For a different flavor profile, consider adding nuts or substituting chocolate types. Keep cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
