Ingredients

  • 10 tbsp butter
  • ½ cup + 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • ½ cup + 1 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 ⅔ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ tsp + ⅛ tsp baking soda
  • ¾ tsp baking powder
  • ¾ tsp salt
  • ⅔ cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Cream Butter & Sugars: In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until smooth and creamy.
  • Add Wet Ingredients: Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
  • Combine Dry Ingredients: Whisk the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together in a separate bowl. Slowly mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture just until a dough forms.
  • Fold in Chocolate: Gently stir in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  • Scoop & Chill: Scoop dough into 2-tablespoon balls and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet or in tupperware. Rest the dough in the fridge for 48-72 hours.
  • Bake: After chilling, place the cookies on a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each. Bake at 350°F for 10–12 minutes until the edges turn golden and the centers are soft.
  • Cool: Let the cookies rest on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
