Ingredients
  

Dough
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour **
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 2 sticks unsalted butter at cool room temperature (67°F)
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar

  • 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350ºF and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
