These Small Batch Chocolate Chip Cookies feature crisp edges, soft centers, and gooey pockets of chocolate. This recipe makes 4 cookies, just enough for satisfying your cookie cravings.
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.
