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.

Allie on 2026-03-29 (5 stars): Perfect cookies, crispy edges and soft, melty center. Love that they don’t need refrigeration.
Day on 2026-03-29 (4 stars): My go to chocolate chip cookie recipe! However, the recipe calls for a much shorter cooking time then I like I find that if I leave them for 4-6 mins longer they are much more crispy around the edges but stay fluffy in the middle which my family prefers…. could just be my oven though!
Hannah on 2026-03-29 (5 stars): I’ve made these cookies at least 10x and they are truly the BEST! Everyone loves them. They are truly the best chocolate chip cookies and easy to make!
Sharon jabco on 2026-03-29 (5 stars): Cookies are/were Delicious ! kids and hubby approved! Thank you very much for sharing your recipe !
Ashley on 2026-03-29 (5 stars): Made these at high altitude (6500+). The base mix was a solid foundation.
I added the zest of 2 oranges to the butter/sugar creaming, added 2 tsp of cocoa and 1 tbsp of dark cocoa to the dry ingredients, and added pecans.
They made the perfect orange-fudge cookie.
Faizan on 2026-03-29 (5 stars): What if I want to make a larger cookie?
Marlene H Stack on 2026-03-29 (4 stars): I use half chocolate and half cinnamon chips to make a unique cookie. I love them.
