Instructions
1-Getting ready: Getting ready to bake these chocolate chip cookies is straightforward and fun. Start by preheating your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and lining baking sheets with parchment paper. This sets the stage for even cooking and easy cleanup.
2-Mixing dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, mix together 3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon baking powder, and 1 teaspoon sea salt; set aside. Then, in another bowl, cream 1 cup softened butter with 1 cup granulated white sugar and 1 cup packed light brown sugar until they blend smoothly.
3-Combining wet and dry ingredients: Beat in 2 large eggs and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract until the mixture turns light, which takes about 1 minute. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ones and mix until combined, then fold in 2 cups chocolate chips thoroughly.
4-Shaping and Baking Steps: 1. Portion 2 to 3 tablespoons of dough per cookie and roll into balls.
2. Place them evenly spaced on the prepared baking sheets.
3. Bake for 8-10 minutes, removing when they are just barely turning brown.
4. Let the cookies sit on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool.
