1 1/2 sticks butter (3./4 cup) softened
1/2 cup coconut oil, melted, but not hot*
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
3 eggs
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 1/2 tsp. salt
1 1/2 tsp. baking soda
4 cups flour
3 cups chocolate chips
Mix softened butter and coconut oil until blended. Add sugars, mix well. Blend in eggs, then vanilla salt and baking soda.
Fold in flour until well combined. Stir in chocolate chips.
Drop by tablespoonfuls on ungreased baking sheets.
Bake at 375 degrees F for 5 minutes on the top rack and 5 additional minutes on the bottom rack.
Cool slightly before removing to cooling racks.
*Tip: When using coconut oil, it's best to let all ingredients come to room temperature first. If using cold ingredients, mix while adding oil slowly, the batter may thicken as the coconut oil hardens.
