Preparation

Step 1

1. Heat oven to 350 with rack in middle position. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.

2. Whisk flour-salt; set aside.

3. Whisk butter-vanilla. Stir in sugar until smooth. Stir in flour and 1/3 cup chips

4. Roll into 1 tbsp 1" balls and place on sheets 2 1/2" apart. Press remaining chips on top of dough.

5. Bake until light golden and centers are set (11-13 minutes), moving tray halfway through baking time. Bake only one sheet at a time.

6. Cool on baking sheets 5 minutes then cool on wire rack.

Notes: these were good but did taste light. So very good for a light cookie, but probably just a good compared to the less healthy ones
