Ingredients
  

Main
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 cup 2 sticks butter, softened to room temperature
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups Ghirardelli semi-sweet chocolate chips

Equipment

  • Stand mixer or hand mixer
  • Large mixing bowl
  • Medium mixing bowl
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Baking sheets
  • Parchment paper
  • Rubber spatula or wooden spoon
  • Cookie scoop or tablespoon

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and sea salt.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar on medium-high speed for 2 to 3 minutes until light and fluffy.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, then mix in the vanilla extract.
  5. Reduce mixer speed to low and gradually add the flour mixture until just combined.
  6. Fold in the Ghirardelli chocolate chips by hand using a rubber spatula.
  7. Line your baking sheets with parchment paper and use a cookie scoop to drop dough portions about 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake for 12 to 14 minutes until the edges are golden brown but the centers still look slightly underdone.
  9. Let the cookies rest on the baking sheet for 2 minutes, then transfer them to a wire cooling rack.
