Ingredients

1 cup butter, softened
½ cup brown sugar
½ cup granulated sugar
¼ cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2¼ cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup chocolate chips, or mini

Instructions

In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream butter and sugars until smooth. Add milk and vanilla and beat until mixed together.
In another bowl, mix flour, salt, baking soda, and baking powder.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until a dough forms.
Fold in the chocolate chips and stir to combine. Chill for 20-30 minutes in the fridge.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and scoop dough into 1 - 1.5-inch balls and place on the cookie sheet. We like to add chocolate chips on top of each dough ball for an even better-looking cookie!
Bake for 10 - 12 minutes or until edges are slightly browned.
Let the cookies sit on the cookie sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a cookie rack or wax paper to finish cooling.

Notes

Recipe Tips.

Softened butter is necessary, but if it's too soft or melted, it will cause the cookies to spread more and flatten in the oven.
For an egg-free and gluten-free cookie, replace the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free baking flour with a 1:1 ratio.
For the best texture, do not overmix the dough.
For picture-perfect cookies, add about 5 chocolate chips to the top of the cookie dough balls before baking.

Store cookie dough. Cover the cookie dough and chill it in the fridge for 1-2 days. For longer storage, freeze the cookie dough balls for up to 3 months to be baked later. See How to Freeze Cookie Dough for tips.

Store baked cookies in an airtight container for up to 7 days at room temperature or for up to 3 months in the freezer.
