  4. Beat in egg and vanilla extract until well combined
  5. Gradually mix in dry ingredients, being careful not to overmix
  6. Fold in chocolate chips gently
  7. Chill dough for 15-20 minutes for better shape retention

Notes

Use room temperature ingredients for even mixing. Don't overmix the batter to preserve texture. Chill dough briefly before baking for better shape. Bake until edges are set but centers still look slightly underdone for fudgy texture. Rotate baking sheets halfway through for even browning.
