# What You Need:

→ Dry Ingredients

01 - 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
02 - 1 teaspoon baking soda
03 - 3/4 teaspoon salt

→ Wet Ingredients

04 - 1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
05 - 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
06 - 1/2 cup granulated sugar
07 - 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
08 - 2 large eggs, at room temperature

→ Mix-Ins

09 - 1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips (combination of regular and mini chips recommended)

→ Topping (Optional)

10 - Chocolate chunks and sprinkles for pressing on top

# How to Make It:

01 - Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
02 - In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt until fully incorporated. Set aside.
03 - In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 1 to 2 minutes.
04 - Add eggs one at a time, mixing until just combined. Blend in vanilla extract.
05 - Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until the dough forms with no visible streaks of flour.
06 - Gently fold in semisweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
07 - Scoop about 2 tablespoons of dough per cookie and place onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing each cookie 2 to 3 inches apart. For heart shapes, use a cookie cutter to form the dough before transferring. If desired, gently press chocolate chunks and sprinkles onto the surface of each cookie.
08 - Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 45 minutes until golden at the edges and just set in the centers. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

# Extra Tips:

01 - For even shaping, flour the cookie cutter lightly and chill dough if it becomes too soft.
