• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
• 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
• 2 sticks butter
• 1 1/2 cups packed brown sugar
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 3 large eggs
• 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
• 2 1/2 cups chocolate chips (16 ounces)

Preheat oven to 375°.

Mix together flour, baking soda, and salt.

Beat together butter and sugars in a large bowl with mixer at high speed until light and fluffy.  Add eggs one at a time to butter mixture, beating until creamy, about 1 minute. Beat in vanilla. Reduce speed to low and mix in flour mixture until just blended, then stir in chips.

Use 1/4 cup disher and scoop 6 cookies onto each parchment-lined sheet pan.  Flatten cookies slightly and bake 13 – 15 minutes.
