• Ready In: 27 mins
• Yields: 45 48 cookies

Ingredients

• 1  cup salted butter, softened
• 1⁄2 cup sugar
• 1 1⁄2 cups  packed brown sugar
• 2  eggs
• 2  teaspoons vanilla extract
• 3  cups all-purpose flour
• 1⁄2 teaspoon table salt
• 1  teaspoon baking soda
• 1 1⁄2 teaspoons baking powder
• 16  ounces  semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 360 degrees.
2. Cream butter, sugar, and brown sugar until it is nice and fluffy (approx. 5 minutes on medium speed on a K-5). Add both eggs and vanilla and beat for an additional 2 minutes.
3. Add baking soda, baking powder, salt, and flour until cookie batter is fully incorporated. Finally add chocolate chips until well distributed. The cookie batter should be somewhat thick. Drop about 2 tablespoons of dough or use a medium cookie scoop and plop the batter onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
4. Bake for 12-14 minutes until the edges are nice and golden brown. Remove from heat and allow the cookies to stay on the cookie sheet for an additional 2 minutes. Pick up the parchment paper with the cookies still on top and transfer to a cool non-porous surface. Allow the cookies to cool on the paper for at least 3 minutes before serving.
