Description: I love to bake chocolate chip cookies with my kids using the following recipe. It's easy and delicious.

Ingredients:
3 cups  All purpose flour
1 teaspoon  Baking soda
1 teaspoon  Fine sea salt
2 stick  Unsalted butter at room temperature
1/2 cup  Granulated sugar
11/4 cup  Brown sugar
2 teaspoon  Vanilla
2  Large eggs
2 cups  Semi sweet Chocolate chips

Instructions: Preheat oven to 350ºF. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.

In a medium bowl combine the flour, baking soda, and salt.

In the bowl of an electric mixer beat the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until creamy, about 2 minutes. Add the vanilla and eggs. Gradually beat in the flour mixture. Stir in the chocolate chips.

If time permits, wrap dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 24 hours but no more than 72 hours. This allows the dough to ?marinate? and makes the cookies thicker, chewier, and more flavorful. Let dough sit at room temperature just until it is soft enough to scoop.

Divide the dough into 3-tablespoon sized balls using a large cookie scoop and drop onto prepared baking sheets.

Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown. Cool for 5 minutes before removing to wire racks to cool completely.
