Ingredients
1 cup (227 grams) unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
1 cup (200 grams) packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup (100 grams) granulated sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 1/4 cups (280 grams) all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups (340 grams) semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Stir until smooth and creamy.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the semisweet chocolate chips evenly throughout the dough.
Using a large cookie scoop or a 1/4 cup measuring cup, scoop dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers still look slightly soft.
Remove from oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your big fat chewy chocolate chip cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage.
