Line your baking tray with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 2:<\/strong> Grab a bowl and give the flour, baking soda, and salt a good mix using a whisk.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 3<\/strong>: In a separate bowl, beat the softened butter with the brown and white sugars until the mixture turns light and fluffy. Next, add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then blend in the vanilla extract for that warm, sweet aroma.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"110\" data-end=\"311\"><strong data-start=\"110\" data-end=\"121\">Step 4:<\/strong> Gradually add the dry mixture into the wet ingredients, stirring until a soft dough forms.
