Ingredients You’ll Need 🛒

• 1 cup butter, softened 🧈
• 1 cup white sugar 🍚
• 1 cup brown sugar 🌰
• 2 large eggs 🥚
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 🌿
• 3 cups all-purpose flour 🌾
• 1 teaspoon baking soda ✨
• ½ teaspoon baking powder 🌟
• ½ teaspoon salt 🧂
• 2 cups chocolate chips 🍫 (or your favorite add-ins: nuts, raisins, etc.)

Step-by-Step Preparation 👩‍🍳

1. Cream the butter and sugars: In a bowl, beat the butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. This step gives cookies their softness. 🧈✨
2. Add eggs and vanilla: Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then mix in the vanilla extract for aroma. 🌿🥚
3. Mix dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Slowly combine with the wet mixture. 🌾
4. Fold in chocolate chips: Gently stir in the chocolate chips or your favorite add-ins. 🍫💛
5. Shape & bake: Scoop spoonfuls of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 8–10 minutes, until edges turn golden. 🔥
6. Cool & enjoy: Let cookies rest for a few minutes before transferring to a rack. They’re best when warm and melty inside. 🍪
