Baking Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius). Line three baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl mix flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
  • Cream together butter and sugars until combined.
  • Beat in eggs and vanilla until light (about 1 minute).
  • Mix in the dry ingredients until combined.
  • Add chocolate chips and mix well.
  • Roll 2-3 Tablespoons of dough at a time into balls and place them evenly spaced on your prepared cookie sheets.
  • Bake in preheated oven for approximately 8-10 minutes. Take them out when they are just barely starting to turn brown.
  • Let them sit on the baking pan for 5 minutes before removing to cooling rack.

Notes

Do not over bake. When you remove the cookies from the oven they will still look doughy. This is the secret that makes these cookies so absolutely amazing! If using a convection oven, decrease baking temperature by 25 degrees.
