Ingredients
  

  • 2½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tsps vanilla extract
  • 2 cups chocolate chips
  • Gel food coloring (pastel pink, purple, yellow, and blue)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Whisk flour, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
  • Beat softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy (2–3 minutes).
  • Add eggs one at a time, mixing after each. Stir in vanilla extract. Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Mix until just combined.
  • Split dough into four portions. Color each with a different pastel gel food coloring (pink, purple, yellow, blue). Mix gently.
  • Press small portions of each colored dough together. Roll into a ball for a marbled effect.
  • Place dough balls 2 inches apart on the baking sheet. Flatten lightly and add extra chocolate chips on top. Bake for 10–12 minutes until golden at the edges.
  • Let cookies cool on the sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
