Chocolate Chip Cookies Without Baking Soda

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Step 2

Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and brown sugar for 2 to 3 minutes, until light and fluffy.

Step 4

Add in the eggs and vanilla, mixing thoroughly.

Step 5

Sift in the flour and salt and mix until just combined.

Step 6

Use a rubber spatula to fold in the chocolate chips.

Step 7

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill the dough for at least 30 minutes, or until you’re ready to bake.

Step 8

Use a medium cookie scoop to drop rounded spoonfuls of dough on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart.

Step 9

Bake for 8 to 12 minutes, until golden brown and slightly underdone — be careful not to overbake.

Step 10

Cool for 3 to 5 minutes, then transfer them to baking racks to cool completely.
