24 cookies

I always say that everything with chocolate is better, and these chocolate chips cookies are a great example. Vanilla cookie dough is made for chocolate chips!

Ingredients:

1 ½ sticks of unsalted butter - room temperature (6 OZ)
½ cup of granulated sugar
½ cup of brown sugar
2 eggs
1 TSP of baking powder
½ TSP of salt (*)
2 cups of all-purpose flour
1 TSP of vanilla extract
Optionally: 2 cups of chocolate chips of your choice - crushed (*)

* Use a mixture of types or any kind you prefer. I like to use an even mixture or 60% chocolate, milk, and white chocolate chips.

Tools:

1x Measuring Cups
1x Measuring Spoons
1x Kitchen Mixer with Flat Beater Attachment (or hand mixer)
1x Silicone Spatula
2x Baking Sheet with Parchment Paper or Silicone Matt
1x Disher (Preferably 1 FL OZ size or set of spoons. Leveled 1 OZ scoop will create a portion of about 1.5 OZ for each cookie. Use smaller or larger disher if you want to reach the different sizes of cookies.)

Directions:

1. Dough:

1.1. Place into a kitchen mixer with a flat beater attachment:

1 ½ sticks of butter – soft
½ cup of granulated sugar
½ cup of brown sugar
2 large eggs

Process on high speed until fully incorporated and you reach a creamy texture (about 3 – 5 minutes).

1.2. Add:

1 TSP of baking powder
½ TSP of salt
2 cups of flour
1 TSP of vanilla extract

Process at slow speed until all ingredients are partially combined. Then, increase the speed to medium-high and process until nicely combined (about 2 minutes).

1.3. Add:

2 cups of chocolate chips

Process on medium speed until nicely combined (about 1 – 2 minutes).

2. Scoop & bake:

2.1.

Set oven to 350°F.

2.2. Scoop the dough using a 1 OZ disher (1 scoop is the amount for one cookie) or a set of spoons and place it on the baking sheet (do not flatten; it will happen naturally during baking).

Note:
Place 12 individual scoops on each of the two baking sheets (with parchment paper).

2.4. Bake in a preheated oven until fully baked (about 15 minutes). Rotate the baking sheets in the middle of baking.

Important:
Cookies will be softer after baking, more than you may have expected. It is important to let them cool on the baking sheet to harden.

2.5.

Let cool on the baking sheets: The cookies will finish baking while cooling on the baking sheets.

If parts of the ingredients stick to the side of the kitchen mixer during processing, stop the mixer, and use a spatula to mix it back in. Then, continue processing.
