Best Chocolate Chip Cookies

Sift flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt into a bowl; set aside.

Using a mixer, cream butter and sugars together until very light. Add in eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla.

Reduce speed to low and add the dry ingredients until just combined. Drop chocolate pieces into the mixture and combine.

Press plastic wrap against dough and refrigerate for 24-36 hours. When ready to bake, preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Scoop golfball-sized pieces of dough onto the baking sheet. Sprinkle with sea salt. Bake for around 18 minutes, until golden brown but still soft. Transfer to a wire rack until cooled completely.
