- 1 cup unsalted butter room temperature
- ½ cup granulated white sugar
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs room temperature
- 2 ½ cups gluten free flour blend or all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- kosher salt sprinkled on top optional
Preheat oven to 375°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
In the bowl of a stand mixer, fitted with the paddle attachment, add butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla. Beat on medium speed for 8 minutes. Yes, 8.
Turn mixer off, add eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed until dough is smooth.
In a medium bowl, mix together flour, baking soda and salt.
Add flour mixture to butter mixture all at once. Mix on low just until flour is blended, not a second more. This takes my Kitchen Aid mixer about 10 times around the bowl.
Add chocolate chips and mix for about 3 seconds, until evenly distributed.
Using a 3 tablespoon scoop place dough balls 2 inches apart on baking sheets. Bake on center rack for 9-11 minutes, until lightly brown on the edges and still soft in the center.
Allow to cool on baking sheet for 2-3 minutes, then transfer to cooling rack.
