A family favorite recipe.

Ingredients

  • 3 sticks butter, cut into chunks cold (kirkland)

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 Tbsp vanilla (real)

  • 1 ¼ cup brown sugar

  • 1 ¼ cup white sugar

  • 2 tsp baking soda

  • ½ tsp salt

  • 1 tsp baking powder

  • 4 cups flour (king Arthur’s bleached all-purpose)

  • 3 ½ heaping cups chocolate chips (kirkland)

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 350°.

  • Mix butter, eggs, vanilla, and sugars together, not too long.

  • Add baking soda and salt, mix again.

  • Add in 2 cups of flour at a time, add the the baking powder with the first two cups of flour, mix and add the next two cups of flour, don’t overmix.

  • Add chocolate chips.

  • Use a two inch scoop, sprinkle each scoop with just a tad kosher salt

  • Prep baking sheets with parchment paper.

  • Bake for 14 mins, or until outer edges are golden brown. When you pull the baking sheet out, set pans on cooling racks.

  • Tips

    • Try not to touch the dough as the oils from your hands can change the doughs consistency.

    • I tightly pack the dough in the scoops.

    • I do not smash down the cookie dough after I’ve scooped them
