Stick to this simple recipeyou can’t go wrong.
For best results, bring the butter to room temperature before adding it to the mixing bowl.
One at a time, beat in the eggs, then the vanilla.
Mix in the chocolate chips and nuts (if desired) by hand.
Drop heaping tablespoonfuls of the dough onto baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart.
Cool slightly on the baking sheets, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
