a genuinely good chocolate chip cookie. No tracking, just butter.
Makes about 3 dozen · Prep 15 min · Bake 10 min
Ingredients
- 2¼ cups (280g) all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 cup (227g) unsalted butter, softened
- ¾ cup (150g) granulated sugar
- ¾ cup (165g) packed brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups (340g) semisweet chocolate chips
- Flaky sea salt, for finishing (optional, but do it)
Method
- Heat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment.
- In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- Beat the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and creamy, about 2–3 minutes. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then the vanilla.
- Add the flour mixture in two additions, mixing just until no dry streaks remain. Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Scoop rounded tablespoons onto the sheets, about 2 inches apart. Finish each with a pinch of flaky salt.
- Bake 9–11 minutes, until the edges are golden but the centers still look a little underdone — they keep cooking on the sheet.
- Cool on the sheet for 5 minutes, then move to a rack. Best slightly warm.
Tip: chill the dough for 30 minutes (or overnight) before baking for thicker
cookies and deeper flavor. Patience is a load-time optimization for cookies.
