- Preheat oven to 170 C / Gas 3. In medium bowl combine flour, bicarbonate of soda and salt. Mix well with wire whisk. Set aside.
- In a large bowl blend sugars. Add butter and mix to form a grainy paste, scraping down the sides of the bowl. Add eggs and vanilla extract, and mix until just blended.
- Sift in half of the flour mixture and blend. Add chocolate chips and the rest of the flour mixture, blend until just mixed. Do not overmix.
- Scoop spoonfuls of mixture onto an ungreased baking tray, keeping the scoops about 3 centimeters apart.
- Bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Transfer cookies immediately to a cool surface with a spatula.
Substitution
If you don't have brown sugar in the house, use 200g caster sugar and 170g maple syrup. If you don't have either of those 300g sugar will do.
