Ingredients
Method
- Whisk the flour and salt together in a small bowl.
- In a medium bowl, beat the butter with both sugars on medium speed until pale and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
- Mix in the vanilla, then beat in the flour mixture on low just until combined. Fold in the chocolate chips by hand.
- Scoop level tablespoonfuls of dough and roll into balls. Serve right away or chill for 15 minutes to firm up.
Notes
The flour must be heat-treated to be safe to eat raw. Bake it at 350°F for 5 minutes or microwave until it reaches 165°F, then cool completely. Use room temperature butter for the smoothest dough, and pure vanilla extract gives the best flavor.
