Super Soft Chocolate Chip Cookies

{source}

2 sticks (1 c.) butter, softened
3/4 c. packed light brown sugar
3/4 c. granulated sugar
2 large eggs
2 tsp. vanilla extract
3 - 3 1/4 c. flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
2 c. (12 oz.) chocolate chips


Preheat the oven to 350°F. 

Line baking sheets with parchment paper or lightly grease with cooking spray. (I used my silpat mats.)

In a large bowl, or in the bowl of an electric stand mixer, cream together the butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla until light and fluffy – about 2-3 minutes.

Add the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and chocolate chips, and mix until combined.

Roll into balls and drop onto the prepared baking sheets.

Bake for 10-11 minutes until the edges are just set and the middles are still light and fluffy.

Let the cookies rest on the baking sheets for 3-4 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.

I used a small cookie scoop, and this recipe made at least 5 dozen cookies.
