The Daily Balance

1: Add the butter to a large mixing bowl. Unless it was already at room temperature, add it to the microwave for about 20-30 seconds. It should be soft but not melted.

2: Add all sugars to the bowl with the butter and beat with an electric mixer until fluffy, creamy and well combined.

3: Beat in the egg and the vanilla.

4: Add in all of the dry ingredients, spooning and leveling the flour to measure. Do not scoop from the bag.

5: Beat together until combined.

6: Fold in the chocolate chips.

7: Scoop using 2 tbsp of dough and form into balls.

8: Place the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

9: Place in the fridge to set for 2 hours (don’t skip this!).

10: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit when you have about 15 minutes left.
