Step 2
In a large mixing bowl or stand mixer, beat the melted butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract until creamy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Gradually beat in the flour mixture. Stir in the chocolate chips. Drop the dough by a rounded tablespoon onto ungreased baking sheets. Bake for 10 minutes, or until golden brown. Cool on the baking sheets for 2 minutes, then remove the cookies to wire racks to cool completely.

Make Ahead

The cookie dough can be tightly rolled with plastic wrap into a log and stored in the freezer for up to 2 months. To bake, remove the dough from the freezer and slice into 1/2-inch pieces. Place on cookie sheet, allow to defrost for 10 minutes, then bake for 10 minutes.

This is the Best chocolate chip cookie recipe ever, and what I like is you only need 2 1/4 cup flour . And let me tell you I always go for everything that starts with Best recipe ever. Well from now on I'll start with Classic, my husband takes these to work and says they don't last 30 minutes on his desk!

These are the BEST cookies! Made them twice since quarantine started. So so good. Whip the butter and sugar for a good 5 min though...

These are so delicious! I used dark chocolate (1.5 c) and white chocolate chips (0.5c) for an overwhelming chocoholic buzz. I did have to bake for 15 minutes rather than 10 to get to a golden brown, but maybe that's my oven.
