Add eggs and vanilla and beat until blended. Gradually add flour mixture to creamed mixture and blend until just combined. Stir in chocolate chips.

Cool for 1 minute on baking sheets before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.

Notes

For an extra-special treat, try adding 1 cup of chopped candy bars or 1 cup of chopped dried fruit to the dough before baking. For a more decadent cookie, try adding 1 cup of melted chocolate chips to the dough before baking. These cookies can also be frozen in an airtight container for up to 3 months.
