Preparation Steps

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
• In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
• In another bowl, combine melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Mix until smooth.
• Beat in the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture.
• Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and stir until just combined.
• Fold in the chocolate chips evenly through the dough.
• Drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
• Bake for 10-12 minutes or until edges are golden but centers remain soft.
• Remove from oven and let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
