Time 45m

Yield 36

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
1 ¼ teaspoons baking soda
1 ¼ cups unsalted butter, softened
1 ¼ cups white sugar
1 cup light brown sugar

Steps:

  • Whisk flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda together in a medium bowl, and set aside.
  • Beat butter and sugars together in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add eggs one at a time, scraping down sides of bowl as necessary. Beat for an additional 3 minutes. Add vanilla and beat for 10 seconds.
  • Reduce speed to low and gradually add in the flour mixture, blending just until combined. Fold in chocolate chips.
