Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup butter, softened Room temperature for proper creaming
- 1 cup brown sugar Adds caramel flavor
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs Beat in one at a time
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chocolate chips For extra chocolatey flavor

Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line your baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cocoa powder until combined.
- Gradually add the dry mixture into the creamed mixture, blending until just incorporated.
- Fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
Baking
- Using a spoon, drop generous spoonfuls of the dough onto ungreased baking sheets, leaving space between each cookie.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are set but the centers remain soft.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
Notes
Cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for about a week. Dough can also be frozen for later baking. For variations, consider adding nuts or swirling in peanut butter.
