Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until combined.
  6. Fold in chocolate chips evenly throughout the dough.
  7. Cover the dough and refrigerate for 30–60 minutes to firm up.
  8. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1/2-inch thickness.
  9. Use a heart-shaped cookie cutter to cut out cookies and place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving 2 inches between each.
  10. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until edges are golden brown but centers are still soft.
  11. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Chilling the dough helps cookies keep their heart shape during baking.
  • Use light-colored baking trays to avoid overbrowning.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
  • You can freeze shaped dough for up to 2 months and bake directly from frozen.
  • For a festive look, drizzle melted chocolate or add colorful sprinkles after cooling.
