Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks) butter softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar, lightly packed make sure it's fresh and soft
2 large eggs
2 cups Semi-Sweet Chocolate Morsels
Directions:
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Line two baking sheets with silicone mats or parchment paper.

2. In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

3. In a separate bowl, beat butter and both sugars for 2 minutes, until light and fluffy. Add eggs, mixing until combined, scraping the sides of the bowl as needed. On low speed, add in flour mixture and mix until just combined.

4. Gently stir in Chocolate Morsels

5. Scoop balls of dough, between 1.5 and 2.5 tablespoon portions (a little smaller or a little larger than a golf ball). Drop dough onto prepared baking sheets leaving an inch or two for spreading

6. Bake for 9-11 minutes, until the edges of the cookies are set but the center is still slightly underdone, this will create a soft cookie. For a crispier cookie, continue baking for another minute two.

7. Place the baking sheets on wire racks and allow the cookies to cool completely. They will firm up as they cool. Optional: for a slightly thicker cookie, you can gently press the edges of each cookie inward (just a bit!) while they are still warm.
