24 Cookies

ingredients
- 1 cup butter (room temperature)
- 1 1⁄2 cups brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 2 1⁄2 cups flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
directions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Cream together the butter and the brown sugar.
- Add the eggs one at a time, then the vanilla.
- Add the dry ingredients until just combines.
- Using a spoon, mix in the chocolate chips.
- This is an optional step -- I usually make the cookie dough a day ahead of time, and leave it in the fridge overnight. I think it helps make the cookies more chewy, which is how I like them! Then when I take them out the next day to bake, sometimes I'll form the balls of dough, and roll them in chopped pecans before putting them in the oven. But these are both totally optional! The cookies are amazing either way!
- Drop spoonfuls of the cookie dough on a greased cookie sheet and bake at 400 for 7-9 minutes. BUT WATCH THEM! A lot of ovens will cook them too fast on the outside, and not enough on the inside. At my boyfriend's house I will bake them at 400 for about 4-5 minutes, then lower the temp to 350 for 4-5 more minutes.
- Let sit on the cookie sheet for about 5 minutes before moving them to a cooling rack. Enjoy!

Great recipe. I chilled the dough for 30 minutes in the refrigerator and the cookies had a constant crispy/chewy texture throughout the whole cookie. The cookies were a pit poofy because I didn't flatten the chilled cookie dough balls. After adding the wet ingredients aswell as the dry (excluding chocolate chips) and the dough was a bit runny so I added a bit more flour. Very satisfied with the results and would use this recipe another time for sure!
