Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup light brown sugar packed

- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time to the butter mixture, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Gently fold in the chocolate chips and colorful sprinkles until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are just set.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
Notes
Pro Tips: For the best texture, ensure butter is softened but not melted. Chilling the dough prevents spreading and enhances flavor.
Ingredient Substitutions: Substitute half the chocolate chips with white chocolate for a different flavor profile.
How to Serve: Perfect as a standalone treat or as part of a dessert box.
Storage & Freshness: Store in an airtight container for up to a week, or freeze for longer storage.
Make-Ahead Tips: Make the dough ahead of time and freeze in portioned balls for fresh-baked cookies anytime.
