- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Drop teaspoonfuls of dough onto an ungreased baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Adjust the size of the cookies to your preference.
- Bake for 8-9 minutes, or until the tops of the cookies have a light touch of brown.
- Remove from the oven and let the cookies sit on the baking sheet for 2-3 minutes to finish cooking.
