Steps
Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius). Line three baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
In a medium bowl mix flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
Cream together butter and sugars until combined.
Beat in eggs and vanilla until light (about 1 minute).
Mix in the dry ingredients until combined.
Add chocolate chips and mix well.
Roll 2-3 Tablespoons (depending on how large you like your cookies) of dough at a time into balls and place them evenly spaced on your prepared cookie sheets.
Bake in preheated oven for approximately 8-10 minutes. Take them out when they are just barely starting to turn brown.
Let them sit on the baking pan for 5 minutes before removing to cooling rack.

Annette on 2025-10-09 (5 stars): I’ve made these numerous times. They’re always perfect! I served them to a chef recently who said they were the best she’d ever had and asked me for this recipe! I was super proud as I’m typically not much of a baker. Thank you!
Grace on 2025-10-09 (5 stars): Your story behind these cookies touched my heart especially now that I have my baby girl, it just goes to show how something simple like a cookie can be such a big gesture of love. That’s why I love to bake and share with the ones around me 🩷 This recipe is amazing & delicious, thankyou!
Briar Allen on 2025-10-08 (4 stars): These turned out super beautiful and would’ve been great! However I made them from frozen and the bottoms are completely black 😢 any advice or suggestions? Would love to make them again if I can figure this out!

Laura on 2025-10-07 (5 stars): About a month ago, my brother helped me with a project around my house, and I decided to make chocolate chip cookies for him as a little thank you. After looking at several blogs, I chose this recipe. My brother and his wife loved the cookies. My sister-in-law, who is the most accomplished cook I know, said “they are perfect“. My brother helped me again today with another project and I’m going to make the same cookies for him again tomorrow. Thanks for a great recipe with lots of explanation about all the “hows and whys” to get them to turn out so well.
