Ingredients
- 1 cup butter softened (2 sticks)
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ¾ cup packed brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon almond extract
- 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. In the bowl of a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together the butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar until light and fluffy, scraping the sides as necessary.
- Add in the eggs, vanilla extract, and almond and mix until just combined.
- In another mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet in two additions, mixing until combined after each addition.
- Fold in the chocolate chips by hand. Spoon rounded tablespoonfuls of the dough onto an ungreased cooking sheet.
- Bake in preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cookies are just barely browned around the edges. Cool for 1-2 minutes on the cookie sheet, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
