OUR FAVORITE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:
- Place racks in upper and lower thirds of oven; preheat to 375°F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Whisk flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda in a medium bowl. Lightly beat eggs and vanilla in a small bowl.
- Using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar in a large bowl until light and fluffy, 3-4 minutes. Add egg mixture and beat, occasionally scraping down sides of bowl, until mixture is pale and fluffy, 3-4 minutes. Reduce mixer speed to low and gradually add dry ingredients, beating until just incorporated. Fold in chocolate with a spatula.
- Spoon about 12 heaping tablespoonfuls of dough onto each prepared sheet, spacing 1" apart. Chill dough 15 minutes on baking sheets before transferring to oven to prevent dough from spreading too much as it bakes.
- Bake cookies, rotating sheets halfway through, until just golden brown around the edges, 10-12 minutes (cookies will firm up as they cool). Let cookies cool on baking sheets 3 minutes, then transfer to wire racks and let cool completely. Let baking sheet cool completely before lining with fresh parchment and spooning on dough for the third batch of cookies.
- Do Ahead
- Dough can be made 3 months ahead. Wrap tightly and freeze. Cookies can be made 1 day ahead. Store in an airtight container at room temperature, or freeze up to 3 months.

Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate chips. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your cookies. Semi-sweet chocolate chips are a classic choice, but you can also use dark chocolate chips for a richer flavor or milk chocolate chips for a sweeter cookie.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the cookies at 375°F (190°C) for 10-12 minutes. The cookies should be golden brown around the edges and just set in the center.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This will help them keep their shape.

These chocolate chip cookies are the perfect treat for any occasion. They're easy to make, delicious, and always a hit with family and friends. So next time you're in the mood for a sweet treat, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed.
