Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup unsalted butter softened (may use salted butter)
  • 1 1/2 cups brown sugar packed
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 tsp sea salt can use regular salt
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 3 cups chocolate chips milk chocolate or semi-sweet

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper
  • Combine butter, brown and white sugar in a large mixing bowl. Using a hand mixer, beat for a couple minutes, scraping the side.
  • Add in eggs and vanilla. Mix well.
  • Add flour, salt, baking soda. Do not over mix. Just mix until combined. Fold in 2 cups of the chocolate chips, saving the rest for later.
  • Scoop the dough onto parchment paper, placing 2" apart. Press a 2-3 chocolate chips on each mound of dough before baking.
  • Bake for 9 minutes or until the edges start to get slightly golden. Timing may vary depending on ovens or how big your cookies are. I use a 2 Tbsp scoop for mine. Remove from oven and place a couple more chocolate chips on any open areas of the cookies. Allow to cool for a couple minutes on the pan before removing to a wire rack.
