- Stir in 1/2 cup chocolate chips.
- Scoop mounded tablespoonfuls onto the cookie sheet, spacing about two inches apart.
- Press down gently with your fingers to flatten slightly.
- Top each with a few additional chocolate chips, if desired.
- Bake until set and the edges are golden brown, 8-9 minutes.
- Remove from oven and let cool for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Cookies keep well in an airtight container at room temperature for 4-5 days.
