ingredients

16 ounces all-purpose flour (3 1/2 cups)
1 ¹⁄₄ teaspoons baking soda
1 ¹⁄₂ teaspoons baking powder
1 ¹⁄₂ teaspoons kosher salt or 3/4 teaspoon table salt
1 ¹⁄₄ cups unsalted butter (2 1/2 sticks)
10 ounces dark brown sugar (1 1/4 cups)
8 ounces granulated sugar (1 cup plus 2 tablespoons)
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 ¹⁄₄ lbs chocolate chips (I prefer Ghirardelli)

directions

Sift (or whisk together) flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt into a bowl. Set aside.
Using a mixer with a paddle attachment, cream butter and both sugars together until blended. Don't go crazy here, just make sure everything is incorporated.
Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
Stir in the vanilla. Reduce speed to low, add dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Stir in chocolate chips.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Using a size 20 ice cream scoop (approximately ¼ cup) form dough into balls, *place on cookie sheet and bake 18 to 20 minutes, or until light golden brown but still soft.
Let cookies rest on cookie sheet for only 1 or 2 minutes, then gently remove from tray and place directly on counter top until set enough to eat. Don't even bother with a cooling rack.
