Step‑by‑Step Instructions

  3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Add the eggs and vanilla to the creamed mixture and mix until well blended.
  5. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients in two or three additions, mixing until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  7. Scoop the dough into balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets with 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake for 8-10 minutes until golden around the edges and soft in the center.
