Ingredients

  • 42 g salted butter melted; if using unsalted butter, add ⅛ teaspoon sea salt
  • 40 g brown sugar
  • 15 g granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg yolk or ½ beaten egg (about 20g)
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 64 g all-purpose flour
  • teaspoon baking soda
  • 40 g dark chocolate chunks or chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F/177°C.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Whisk together melted butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar until glossy and smooth.
  • Add in egg yolk and vanilla extract.
  • Sift in flour, baking soda, and salt and mix until just combined.
  • Fold in dark chocolate chunks, or chips.
  • Drop scoops of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake cookies at 350°F/177°C for 8-10 minutes, until edges are set but centers look slightly underdone.
  • Note: if you prefer a rippled edge look, remove cookies halfway through the bake and bang the pan a few times before returning to the oven to continue baking.
  • Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to completely cool.

Notes

Yield: 4 x 3" cookies; size of cookies will vary depending on the size of your scoop. I used a 3 tablespoon scoop.
