Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 2.25 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 0.5 tsp salt
Wet Ingredients
  • 1 cup unsalted butter softened (2 sticks)
  • 0.75 cup granulated sugar
  • 0.75 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
The Good Stuff
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips 12 oz bag, or mix of chips

Equipment

  • 12-inch round pizza pan or large cast iron skillet
  • Mixing bowls
  • Electric mixer (handheld or stand)

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 12-inch round pizza pan or line with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy (2-3 minutes).
  4. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  7. Press the cookie dough evenly into your prepared pizza pan, ensuring an even thickness.
  8. Bake for 18-25 minutes, until the edges are golden brown and set, and the center still looks slightly soft.
  9. Let cool in the pan on a wire rack for at least 15-20 minutes before slicing into wedges.
  10. Serve warm, on its own or with toppings like ice cream, whipped cream, or chocolate sauce. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature.

Notes

Do not overbake for a gooey center! The cookie will continue to set as it cools. For cleaner slices, allow to cool sufficiently before cutting.
