Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 heaping tbsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 8 tbsp butter 1 stick at room temperature
- 2 cups light brown sugar packed
- 2 large eggs
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F and position rack to center of oven. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, whisk together dry ingredients including the flour, baking soda, and salt.
- In a mixer, beat butter and sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy. Then add eggs and beat until blended. Add vanilla and beat until blended.
- Turn off mixer and pour flour mixture into the bowl. Mix on medium until flour is thoroughly mixed in, then mix on high speed for a few seconds to pull dough together. Dough should be chunky.
- Add chocolate chips and beat on high for no more than five seconds to mix in chips.
- Make large spoonfuls on the lined baking sheet, but do not flatten. Bake until the tops are lightly brown; 10 to 11 minutes. The larger the spoonfuls, the longer it'll need to stay in the oven. Cool on the pan for one minute, then transfer cookies to a cooling rack.
- Store cookies in a tightly covered container at room temperature for up to three days.
