Yields1 Serving
Prep Time15 minsCook Time10 minsTotal Time25 mins
 2 sticks salted butter - softened
 ½ cup white/granulated sugar
 1 cup packed dark brown sugar
 2 tsp Vanilla extract
 1 tsp salt
 2 large eggs
 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
 ½ tsp baking soda
 12 oz plus 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chip morsels
1

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

2

In a large bowl, use a spatula to mix together salted butter, granulated sugar, packed dark brown sugar, Vanilla extract, salt, eggs, and baking soda.

**NOTE: If your sticks of butter are not softened, or are cold and hard, place the 2 sticks of butter in a large bowl and microwave for 1 minute.

3

Add in all-purpose flour 1/4 cup at a time, making sure that each scoop of flour is mixed in before adding in the rest.

4

Then incorporate 12 oz. of semi-sweet chocolate chip morsels into the batter. You should be able to swish the soft cookie dough like butter with your spatula.

**NOTE: If you wish, you can substitute one bar of 70% chocolate chopped, and/or roughly chopped nuts.
