Chocolate chip cookies are always the right way to go.

This is the chocolate chip cookie that makes a bad day good, solves problems and just makes you feel good. Bake a batch and share with friends, family, kids, neighbors, or anyone that needs to smile!
Ingredients
- 1 cup (2 sticks) Blue Bonnet salted butter, softened
- ½ cup Pioneer sugar
- 1½ cup packed brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2 tsp. McCormicks vanilla extract
- 2¾ cups (12 oz) Gold Medal all-purpose flour *If at all possible, please weigh the flour
- ¾ tsp. smallish-medium coarse sea salt
- 1 tsp.Arrm and Hammer baking soda
- 1½ tsp. baking powder
- 2¼ cups Hershey’s semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat oven to 360 degrees. Cream butter, sugar, and brown sugar until it is nice and fluffy (approx. 3 minutes on medium-high speed on a K-5). Add both eggs and vanilla and beat for an additional 2 minutes. Add baking soda, baking powder, salt, and flour until cookie batter is fully incorporated. Finally add chocolate chips until well distributed. The cookie batter should be somewhat thick. Drop about 2 tablespoons of dough or use a medium cookie scoop and plop the batter onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 12-14 minutes until the edges are nice and golden brown. Remove from heat and allow the cookies to stay on the cookie sheet for an additional 2 minutes. Pick up the parchment paper with the cookies still on top and transfer to a cool non-porous surface. Allow the cookies to cool on the paper for at least 3 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
