==Ingredients==
* 1 cup all-purpose plain flour or white whole wheat flour
* 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
* 3/4 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature
* 1/2 cup (3 1/2/104g) firmly packed brown sugar
* 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
* 1/2 teaspoon coarse sea salt
* 1 large egg
* 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (essence)
* 1 cup (6oz/185g) semisweet (plain) chocolate chips

==Directions==
# Preheat to 375'F. Line 2 rimless baking sheets with parchment paper or silpat liners.
# In a bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder. Set aside.
# In a large bowl, cream together the butter, sugars, and salt until light.  Beat in the eggs and vanilla until smooth. Slowly add the flour mixture and beat on low speed until incorporated. Stir in the chocolate chips.
#Drop the dough by heaping tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing the cookies 2 inches (5cm) apart. Bake the cookies until the bottoms and edges are lightly browned, 10-12 minutes. Cool on baking sheet for several minutes. Transfer them to wire racks to cool completely.
