OMG Soft Batch Chocolate Chip Cookies! Pure Nirvana!

INGREDIENTS

• 14 tablespoons unsalted butter softened
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup light brown sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (+ a few extra tablespoons, see ** in directions below--I used 2 extra tablespoons)
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt or sea salt
• 3 cups chocolate chips (any variation of chocolate chips or chocolate chunks)

INSTRUCTIONS

1. 1 Preheat oven to 350°F. Line baking sheets with parchment or spray with non-stick spray.
2. 2 Partially melt butter: microwave it halfway or place it in a metal bowl in the preheating oven until half melted. Let cool.
3. 3 Beat cooled butter with sugars until light and fluffy. Mix in vanilla and eggs one at a time.
4. 4 Add flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix on low until combined. If dough is too wet, add flour 1 tablespoon at a time (no more than 3 tablespoons extra).
5. 5 Fold in chocolate chips. Scoop dough (1/4 cup for large cookies, 1.5 tablespoons for medium) onto baking sheets, spacing for spreading. Press slightly and add extra chocolate chips on top if desired.
6. 6 Bake one tray at a time: 10–12 minutes for large cookies, 8–9 minutes for small. Cool on a wire rack.
7. 7 Store in an airtight container. Makes 1 dozen large or 2 dozen small cookies.
