Chocolate Chips – Obviously! Go with your preferred chip of choice- we went with a semi-sweet, but feel free to experiment. Maybe try a batch with bittersweet chips or some sweet milk chocolate chips instead?
How to make Chocolate Chip Cookies
First things first, start by getting your dry ingredients whisked together real quick. Again, this is going to be your flour, baking soda, and salt.
Set that aside and get to work on your wet ingredients. Start mixing those by beating together your butter, sugars, and vanilla extract in a separate bowl. A stand or hand mixer will get this done quickly!
With those mixed up, we can start adding our eggs. Beat those in one at a time, making sure the previous one gets mixed in well before adding the next.
Our dry mix is ready and we’ve prepped our wet ingredients. Now it’s time to combine them! Gradually, in small amounts, add your dry ingredients to the wet. Make sure no dry clumps remain before moving on!
With that, all your dough needs are the chocolate chips. Fold those into the dough- feel free to go crazy and make these double chocolate chip cookies if you want!
Now that we’ve prepped the dough, we can finally get to baking. First, get several balls of cookie dough made. Use something like a cookie scoop or a tablespoon to get this done. On a good baking sheet, you should be able to fit 9 of these dough balls with plenty of space for them to flatten out while they bake.
Speaking of baking: let’s bake! Set your baking sheet into a 375 degree oven and let bake. It should take about 10 minutes- give or take- for your cookies to reach a nice, golden brown color. Once they’ve finished baking, allow to cool- first on baking sheet for a few minutes, then on a cooling rack- completely before enjoying!

I have been making these for years, I’m 90 and still making them.
I do chill the dough
I have used this recipe forever. The only thing I do different is I refrigerate the dough balls before baking. This makes them bake a bit thicker.
