Ingredients
24 servings
- •½ cup granulated sugar
- •¾ cup brown sugar
- •1 teaspoon kosher salt
- •8 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- •1 large egg
- •1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- •1 ¼ cups all purpose flour
- •½ teaspoon baking soda
- •2 cups chocolate chips
- •1 pinch sea salt
- •milk, for serving
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the sugars, salt, and butter until a paste forms with no lumps.
- Whisk in the egg and vanilla, beating until light ribbons fall off the whisk and remain for a short while before dissolving back into the mixture.
- Sift in the flour and baking soda, then fold with a spatula to combine. (Be careful not to overmix, as the gluten in the flour to toughen resulting in cakier cookies.)
- Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes or, for a more intense, toffee-like flavor and deeper color, chill overnight. The longer the dough rests, the more complex its flavor will be.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Scoop the dough with an ice-cream scoop onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving at least 4 inches (10 centimeters) of space between cookies and 2 inches (5 centimeters) of space from the edges of the pan so that the cookies can spread evenly.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the edges have started to barely brown. Top each cookie with a pinch of sea salt as soon as they come out of the oven, then let cool completely.
- Serve with a glass of milk.
- Enjoy!
