Ingredients

  • 8 tablespoons cold salted butter
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 6 tablespoons of white granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • Optional: Flaky sea salt

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Add the cold butter to a large mixing bowl and beat until creamy.
  • Next, add the vanilla and buttermilk and mix.
  • Add the white and brown sugar, all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt and mix well. It will be crumbly at first but will come together.
  • Finally, add the chocolate chips and mix until combined.
  • Scoop out onto a cookie sheet and bake for 11-13 minutes or until the cookies are a light golden brown. (I used a medium-sized cookie scoop).

Notes

If you want to add sea salt, you can add it before or after baking. Just sprinkle a pinch on top.
The cookies are easy to freeze. I make the dough and use a scoop to scoop out raw cookies. I put the cookies inside of a freezer bag and freeze up to three months. Just take them out when you are ready to bake. If they are frozen, they will need a couple of extra minutes of baking time.
I like to use a parchment lined baking sheet for easier clean up.
