Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
Supporting Ingredients:
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Leavening and Seasoning:
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Position your oven rack in the center and heat to 350°F, preparing a clean baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine 1 cup softened unsalted butter, 1 cup granulated sugar, and 1 cup brown sugar in a large mixing bowl. Cream these ingredients using an electric mixer until the mixture appears smooth and fluffy.
- Crack 2 large eggs into the butter-sugar mixture, beating thoroughly after each addition. Pour in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and mix until completely incorporated.
- Sift together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt in a separate bowl. Gradually add this dry mixture to your wet ingredients, stirring gently to create a consistent dough.
- Fold 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips into the dough, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
- Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto your prepared baking sheet, spacing each cookie about 2 inches apart to allow room for spreading.
- Slide the baking sheet into the preheated 350°F oven and bake for 9 minutes, watching carefully to achieve a light golden-brown color around the edges.
- Remove the cookies from the oven and let them rest on the baking sheet for 3 minutes to firm up slightly.
- Transfer the cookies to a wire cooling rack, allowing them to cool completely for about 20 minutes before serving.
Notes
- Chilling the dough for 30 minutes before baking helps prevent spreading and creates a thicker, chewier cookie.
- Use high-quality chocolate chips or chunks for the best flavor and texture.
- For a gluten-free version, swap the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free blend that contains xanthan gum.
- Slightly underbake the cookies to achieve that classic soft and chewy NYC-style center.
