Ingredients
all-purpose flour
4 1/4 cups (sifted)
baking powder
1 teaspoon (none)
baking soda
1 teaspoon (none)
unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups (softened to room temperature)
granulated sugar

Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
2
In a large mixing bowl, beat softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together at medium speed until the mixture is creamy and well combined, about 2-3 minutes.
3
Add the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract. Continue to beat at medium speed until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
4
In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, and baking powder. Gradually add this dry mixture to the butter mixture, mixing at low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
5
Gently fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
6
Using a 1/4 cup measuring cup, scoop the dough and drop it onto the prepared cookie sheet, placing them 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
7
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-14 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers are still slightly soft.
8
Once baked, remove from the oven and let the cookies stand on the baking sheet for 1-2 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
