Steps
Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius). Line three baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
In a medium bowl mix flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
Cream together butter and sugars until combined.
Beat in eggs and vanilla until light (about 1 minute).
Mix in the dry ingredients until combined.
Add chocolate chips and mix well.
Roll 2-3 Tablespoons (depending on how large you like your cookies) of dough at a time into balls and place them evenly spaced on your prepared cookie sheets.
Bake in preheated oven for approximately 8-10 minutes. Take them out when they are just barely starting to turn brown.
Let them sit on the baking pan for 5 minutes before removing to cooling rack.

Kelly Schneider on 2026-09-24 (5 stars): I have been making this cookie recipe for my spouse for years now. I will ask, “wouldn’t you like peanut butter, snickerdoodles, oatmeal or sugar cookies this time?” Nope. Always this choc chip cookie recipe…and my honey knows if I dare try out a different recipe! This one is THE ONE!
Melody on 2026-09-24 (5 stars): I really love chewy chocolate chip cookies, and so I stumble on your recipe. It takes a lot for me to actually comment on anything, but this recipe has been my go to recipe for cookies for like the past year and a half, and I haven't had a single batch go wrong. It easy, and quick. The only thing I change is a personal preference of an extra cup of chocolate chips, and I do 1.5 cups of semi sweet chip, and 1.5 cups of milk chocolate because I like the two different textures as the melt slightly different. Thank you so much for posting this, and it will remain my go to cookie recipe for a long time!
