Instructions
- Combine your dry ingredients in a bowl and set to the side.
- Use the paddle on your electric mixer to combine your wet ingredients. Start by blending your butter and sugars. Add your eggs one at a time until combined. Next add the molasses and vanilla extract and combine.
- Add your dry ingredients to your wet mixture and mix until combined.
- Fold your chocolate chips or chunks into the mixture
- On a clean surface, continue to combine your ingredients with your hands, then portion your dough into 3.5 oz. balls, about the size of a racquet ball.
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and line a cookie pan with parchment paper.
- Place your chocolate chip cookie dough balls on your lined cookie tray and chill them up to an hour. The colder the dough the better!
- Bake for 15 - 20 minutes checking at the half-way mark to see if they need to be pressed down. If so, apply light pressure with a spatula. Cold dough won't spread as fast as warm dough during the cooking process.
