Preheat your oven to 180Β°C (350Β°F). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, and then incorporate the vanilla extract.
In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and baking soda.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Gently fold in the chocolate chunks until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a tablespoon, scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie to allow for spreading.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers are slightly soft.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your freshly baked low sodium chocolate chunk cookies!
