Steps:
- Position 2 racks in the center of the oven, and preheat to 375 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment.
- Whisk together the flour, baking soda and 1 teaspoon salt in a large bowl.
- Beat the butter and both sugars on medium-high speed in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment (or in a large bowl if using a handheld mixer) until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Add the eggs, one at time, beating after each addition to incorporate. Beat in the vanilla. Scrape down the side of the bowl as needed. Reduce the speed to medium, add the flour mixture and beat until just incorporated. Stir in the chocolate chips.
- Scoop 12 heaping tablespoons of dough about 2 inches apart onto each prepared baking sheet. Roll the dough into balls with slightly wet hands. Bake, rotating the cookie sheets from upper to lower racks halfway through, until golden but still soft in the center, 12 to 15 minutes (the longer the cook time, the crunchier the cookies). Let cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet, and then transfer to a rack to cool completely.
- Let the baking sheets cool completely, scoop the remaining dough onto 1 sheet and bake. Store the cookies in a tightly sealed container at room temperature for up to 5 days.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, whisk together the sugars, salt, and butter until a paste forms with no lumps.
- Whisk in the egg and vanilla, beating until light ribbons fall off the whisk and remain for a short while before dissolving back into the mixture.
- Sift in the flour and baking soda, then fold with a spatula to combine. (Be careful not to overmix, as the gluten in the flour to toughen resulting in cakier cookies.)
- Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes or, for a more intense, toffee-like flavor and deeper color, chill overnight. The longer the dough rests, the more complex its flavor will be.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Scoop the dough with an ice-cream scoop onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving at least 4 inches (10 centimeters) of space between cookies and 2 inches (5 centimeters) of space from the edges of the pan so that the cookies can spread evenly.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges have started to barely brown. Top each cookie with a pinch of sea salt as soon as they come out of the oven, then let cool completely.
- Serve with a glass of milk.
- Enjoy!

Tips:
- Chill your dough: Chilling the dough helps to prevent the cookies from spreading too much while baking, resulting in a thicker, chewier cookie.
- Use high-quality chocolate chips: The type of chocolate chips you use can make a big difference in the flavor of your cookies. Choose a chocolate chip that you enjoy eating on its own.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough can result in tough, dry cookies. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cookies at the right temperature: The temperature of your oven can also affect the texture of your cookies. Bake the cookies at the temperature specified in the recipe until they are golden brown around the edges.
- Let the cookies cool completely: Once the cookies are baked, let them cool completely on a wire rack before enjoying them. This will help the cookies to set and develop their full flavor.
Conclusion:
These chocolate chip cookies are a classic recipe that is sure to please everyone. With a few simple tips, you can make delicious, chewy chocolate chip cookies that are perfect for any occasion. So next time you're in the mood for a sweet treat, give this recipe a try.
