Ingredients

Instructions

  • Set oven and prep baking sheets. Preheat the oven to 375°F, and line a couple of baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • Make batter. In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened butter with the sugars, salt, pepper and vanilla, and mix until it's smooth. Then add the egg and mix until it's evenly incorporated.
    Add the baking soda and flour and mix only until you no longer see any dry spots.
    Fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Shape. Then use a 2 inch cookie scoop to shape the batter into cookies, adding them to the parchment-lined baking sheets as you go. They should have at least 2 inches between them, about 8 per sheet.
  • Bake. Place the baking sheets in the preheated 375°F oven until the cookies are golden brown along the edges, about 12 minutes.
  • Cool. Let them cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes, then place them on a cooling rack to cool completely.
