Directions
- 1Start by putting butter on low heat on the stove.
- 2First it'll start to bubble up like this and eventually it'll turn this beautiful golden brown color.
- 3Take it off the heat then add in 1 cup of light brown sugar and 1/4 cup of white sugar.
- 4Mix that until just combined then add in 1 large egg yolk, 1 whole egg, and 1 tablespoon of vanilla.
- 5This is 3 times as much vanilla as normal and I promise you it's worth it.
- 6Then add in 1 3/4 cups of spooned and leveled all purpose flour, 3/4 teaspoon baking soda and 1 teaspoon salt.
- 7Mix this until just combined then add in 2 cups of semi sweet chocolate chips (or 8oz of chopped chocolate).
- 8From there scoop your cookie dough into 2oz balls.
- 9Roll them between your hands and I like to do this trick where you add a few more pieces of chocolate to the top of each cookie.
- 10Then you need to chill these cookies for at least 30 minutes. This really helps them to deepen in flavor and leads to a better texture.
- 11Cover them, place them in the fridge and when you're ready, bake at 350F for 11 to 12 minutes.
- 12Always top your cookies with a little sea salt.
