Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp fine sea salt
  • 3/4 cup unsalted butter melted and slightly cooled
  • 1 1/2 cups packed dark brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 3/4 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Whisk flour, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl and set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, dark brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth and well combined.
  4. Add the whole egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract, whisking vigorously until mixture is glossy and smooth.
  5. Add the flour mixture all at once and stir with a wooden spoon or spatula until just combined.
  6. Fold in chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the thick dough.
  7. Scoop dough into rounded tablespoon-sized balls and place 2 inches apart on prepared baking sheets.
  8. Bake for 9-11 minutes until edges are just set but centers still look very soft and slightly underbaked.
  9. Remove from oven and let cookies rest on the baking sheet for 5 full minutes without moving them.
  10. Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely, where they will continue to set up with a chewy texture.
