Ingredients:

  • 1 cup (225g) unsalted butter, softened
  • ¾ cup (150g) granulated white sugar
  • ¾ cup (165g) packed brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tbsp (15ml) vanilla extract
  • 2 ¼ cups (280g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp (5g) baking soda
  • ½ tsp (3g) salt
  • 1 cup (170g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • ½ cup (84g) rainbow jimmies

Instructions:

  1. Beat the softened butter with granulated and brown sugars until the mixture is pale and fluffy. Incorporate eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla extract until smooth.
  2. Sift in the flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix on low speed until flour streaks disappear. Gently fold in chocolate chips and rainbow jimmies using a spatula.
  3. Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto parchment-lined sheets, spaced 2 inches apart. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 12 minutes until edges are set but centers remain soft.
  4. Allow cookies to rest on the hot baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to complete the set.
