-
Adjust oven rack to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
-
Whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt together in a medium bowl.
-
In a large bowl, combine the melted butter, dark brown sugar, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
-
Add the eggs, one at a time, and mix until combined. The mixture should look like thick caramel sauce. Stop the mixer and add the flour. Mix on medium speed until a thick dough forms. Add the chocolate chips and stir until incorporated.
-
Drop dough, about two tablespoons each, onto prepared cookie sheet. (A cookie scoop makes this easy.) Space cookies about 2 inches apart--you don't want more than 9 cookies on the sheet.
-
Bake until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Rotate the baking sheets halfway through baking.
-
Allow the cookies to cool for five minutes and then transfer to a wire rack to cool.
-
Repeat with remaining dough, allowing cookie sheet to cool between each batch.
