Note:
Tips:
- Use room temperature ingredients: Bring butter and eggs to room temperature before baking. This will ensure that they incorporate properly and create a smooth dough.
- Use quality ingredients: Use high-quality butter, chocolate chips, and vanilla extract for the best results.
- Measure accurately: Use a kitchen scale to measure the ingredients accurately, especially the flour.
- Don’t overmix the dough: Overmixing can cause the cookies to become tough. Mix the ingredients just until combined.
- Use parchment paper or silicone baking mats: This will prevent the cookies from sticking to the baking sheet.
- Use a cookie scoop to portion the dough: This will ensure that the cookies are all the same size and bake evenly.
- Rotate the baking sheet halfway through baking: This will ensure that the cookies bake evenly.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet: Letting the cookies cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet will allow them to set before transferring them to a wire rack to cool
