Chocolate Chip Cookies

• Preheat oven to 350° F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat on medium speed the butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about four minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl when necessary. Add the egg and vanilla. Beat until combined, 20 to 30 seconds.
• With the mixer on low, slowly add the flour mixture to the dough. Careful not to over beat. With a wooden spoon or rubber spatula, stir in the chocolate chips by hand.
• Scoop about 2 tablespoons of cookie dough, shape into a ball, and place onto the prepared baking sheet. Press down on the dough slightly with your hand or back of a measuring cup. Repeat placing each ball of cookie dough about 1- to 2-inches apart. Bake for about 12 minutes or until the edges start to turn brown. Cool on the pan for 5 minutes and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Transfer to the freezer for 20-30 minutes.
