- In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy—about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then stir in the vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture. Mix until just combined.
- Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
- Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop dough onto ungreased baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches apart.
