What You'll Need
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Ingredients

* 1 cup unsalted, room temperature butter 
* 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
* 3/4 cup granulated sugar
* 1 tsp baking soda
* 2 eggs
* 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
* 1 tsp salt
* 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
* 1 12-ounce package (2 cups) semisweet chocolate chips

Equipment
* Electric 
mixer (if you have one) or mixing spoon* Mixing bowls (1 medium, 1 large)
* Cookie sheet
* Wire 
cooling rackSpatula* Set of measuring spoons and cups
* Parchment paper (optional)

This recipe makes about 60 cookies.

1. Preheat your oven to 375
° F (191° C).
2. Combine the butter, sugar and brown sugar in a large mixing bowl and beat on medium speed for one minute, scraping the sides of the bowl occasionally.
3. Add eggs and vanilla. Tip: Breaking the eggs into a separate bowl guarantees that you don't end up with eggshell in your cookies.

4. Beat until these are combined. Continue to scrape the sides of the bowl to evenly blend ingredients. Don't overmix, as this can lead to a tougher cookie.

5. Combine flour, salt and baking soda in a separate bowl.

6. Slowly add the flour mixture, beating in as much as you can with the mixer and then stirring in any remaining flour with a spoon.

7. Add the chocolate chips, gently stirring with a spoon until they're evenly mixed throughout the batter.

8. Drop the dough in rounded, teaspoon-sized balls, two inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. Optional: Line the sheet with parchment paper.
9. Bake for eight to 10 minutes or until their edges are golden brown or a toothpick can be cleanly removed from the center.
10. Remove from oven and let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes.

11. Then move the cookies to cool on a wire rack for five minutes.
