Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened Make sure the butter is softened but not melted.
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs Use room temperature eggs.
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour Spoon into measuring cup and level off to avoid over-measuring.
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chocolate chips Use your choice of chocolate.
- ½ cup chopped nuts Optional; walnuts or pecans recommended.
- Sea salt for sprinkling To enhance flavor.
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened unsalted butter with both sugars using an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract. Mix until well incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, blending smoothly.
- Stir in the chocolate chips and optional chopped nuts until evenly distributed.
- Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Baking
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown; centers should look slightly underbaked.
- Remove cookies from the oven and sprinkle sea salt on top while still warm.
- Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
