Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2

Cream together the butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla. Dissolve baking soda in hot water. Add to batter along with salt. Stir in flour and chocolate chips.

Step 3

Wrap dough up in plastic wrap and refrigerate for an hour.

Step 4

When dough is cold, remove from fridge and drop by the spoonful onto lined baking sheets.

Step 5

Bake for about 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until edges start to brown. Leave on sheet for 5-6 mins to cool before transferring onto cooking rack.

For healthier version, replace 1/2 the butter with plain yogurt and one cup of flour with oat flour. This dough also freezes well.
