I have been making chocolate chip cookies since I was a little girl. My mom would always let me help her mix the ingredients and place the dough on the baking sheet. It was a tradition we shared every Sunday evening and still do to this day. This recipe has become a favorite in our family, and I love sharing it with others.

• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 cup brown sugar, packed
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
• 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Cooking Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, cream the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy.

4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and sea salt.

7. Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet.
