- Gradually blend the dry flour mixture into the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
- Gently fold in 1 cup of chocolate chips using a spatula.
- Drop rounded portions of dough onto ungreased baking sheets, leaving 2 inches apart.
- Bake for about 10-12 minutes until edges are set and golden brown, while centers appear soft.
- Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
- Dust with powdered sugar for a festive touch if desired.

Notes
For optimal texture, ensure butter is softened and avoid overbaking. Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes enhances flavor. Use a cookie scoop for uniform sizes.
