Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter softened
  • 1 cup vegetable or canola oil
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • 1 tsp. cream of tartar
  • 2 cups mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 2 cups regular semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter, oil, and sugars until combined.
  • Beat in eggs and vanilla.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and cream of tartar.
  • In two additions, add flour mixture to the butter mixture, beating until just combined. Do not overmix. Dough will be kinda fluffy and light!
  • Fold in all chocolate chips.
  • Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
  • Drop dough by rounded teaspoonfuls onto baking sheets.
  • Bake at 375 for 8-11 minutes, or until edges and bottoms are lightly browned.
  • Remove to wire racks to cool.
  • Store cookies in airtight containers in a cool, dry place. Stack cookies with parchment paper or foil in-between layers. Cookies will keep for about a week.

Notes

These are good for at least a week, but best within the first 3 days. After 3 days, they get crumbly and a bit on the drier side - still a delicious cookie though. 
These freeze really well! Iced or plain, they freeze beautifully.
