Ingredients

1 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 stick unsalted butter
6 tablespoons granulated sugar
6 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 egg
1 cup semi-sweet morsels

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Prepare baking sheets by spraying lightly with Pam.

    Step 2

    2. Cream butter, both sugars, and vanilla. Beat in egg. Add baking soda and flour mixing only until smooth. Fold in chocolate chips. Use 16x24-inch baking sheets and drop cookies in 3 rows of 4.
