- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

- In a separate bowl, cream the softened butter with the brown and granulated sugars using a stand mixer or hand mixer until light and fluffy (about 3 minutes).

- Gradually incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
- Stir in the chocolate chips using a rubber spatula.
