Ingredients

  • 1 c butter, softened
  • 1 c sugar
  • 1 c brown sugar, packed
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 500 g all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp fine sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 c chocolate chips, semi-sweet or bittersweet
  • flaky salt for sprinkling on top

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375℉.
  • Mix the softened butter and sugars for about a minute.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, mixing in each one fully. Add the vanilla.
  • Mix the dry ingredients in a separate bowl and add to the butter mixture. Mix until flour is almost fully incorporated, then add the chocolate chips and mix until fully combined.
  • Use a spoon or scooper to scoop out 12 cookies per lined baking sheet (recipe will make about three dozen cookies). Sprinkle a little flaky salt on the top of each.
  • Bake for 9-10 minutes, until the cookies are just starting to take on color.
  • Let cookies cool on baking sheet for about 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to cool fully. Or just go ahead and eat them hot—because that's what we all do anyways.
