Equipment

Ingredients

1 1/4 cups all purpose flour spooned and leveled
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter 1 stick, melted and cooled
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup light brown sugar packed
1 egg(s) large
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips or chopped chocolate bar

Instructions

In a medium-sized bowl, combine flour, salt, baking soda and baking powder. Set aside.
In a large bowl, add softened butter, white sugar, and brown sugar. Whisk for 2-3 minutes or until it turns into a paste consistency.
Add vanilla and egg, and whisk to combine.
Pour in the dry ingredients and use a rubber spatula to fold in the flour, careful not to overmix.
When there are a few streaks of flour left, add in the chocolate chips and fold those in until evenly combined.
Place the dough in the fridge for 1 hour (or several hours, if possible).
Preheat oven to 350F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
Use a cookie scoop to evenly scoop cookie dough onto the parchment lined baking sheet. Place them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until they’re golden brown and have a golden ring around the bottom edges.
Let cool for a few minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack and bake the rest of the cookies.

Notes

Bake at for 9-11 minutes for bigger cookies (2 oz scoop). If you’re using a smaller scoop you’ll want to bake them for 8-10 minutes, or until they’re golden brown and have a golden ring around the bottom edges.
