Ingredients
- 225 grams butter
- ¾ cup granulated white sugar
- ¾ cup packed brown sugar
- ¼ tsp vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 2¼ cups plain flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 210°C (375°F), or 195°C (350°F) if you want chewy biscuits.
- Start by Creaming butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar in a large mixer bowl.
- Add eggs one at a time, beating until fully incorporated.
- Add vanilla extract and beat in.
- In a small bowl, sift together the dry ingredients (except chocolate).
- Add to the wet mixture in two parts and fold until combined. If you beat this too long, you may get some gluten formation which will change the cookie texture.
- Stir in chocolate chips.
- Drop by rounded tablespoons onto un greased baking sheets. There should be enough fat in the biscuit dough to prevent sticking, but using baking paper may help further if desired.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown, cooking times may vary.
- Let stand for about 1 minute and remove from hot baking sheet to cool on a wire rack.
