Step 1

Kick the tires and light the fires to 375 degrees.

Step 2

Cream your butter and sugar together until they are light and fluffy.

Step 3

Add in the eggs, one at a time, beating in completely.

Step 4

Add the vanilla as well.

Step 5

Whisk together your dry ingredients and add to the butter/sugar mixture.

Step 6

Combine well then add the chocolate chips, mixing until they are spread through the dough evenly.

Step 7

Drop by well rounded tablespoons onto an ungreased or parchment lined sheet. Do not press them down if you want a lovely rounded top cakey cookie.

Step 8

Bake at 375 degrees for 8-10 minutes until golden brown. They will spread out slightly but still stay wonderfully puffy and cakey.
