INGREDIENTS


2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter, softened
1 cup light brown sugar
1/3 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups milk chocolate chips

DIRECTIONS


Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.


Cream together the butter and sugars in a mixing bowl, mixing until pale yellow and light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Mix in the eggs one at a time, and then the vanilla until combined.


Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a separate mixing bowl. Slowly incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Stir in the chocolate chips. Portion 2 tablespoons of dough for each cookie and roll together to form a ball, spacing the dough balls 2 inches apart on the baking sheet.


Bake until the edges just start to brown, 12 to 14 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
