Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg yolk
- 6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 0.25 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 pinch salt
- 3 tablespoons chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter for about 20-30 seconds until fully liquefied but not hot.
Add the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract to the melted butter and whisk until smooth.
Mix in the egg yolk until well combined.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until a soft dough forms.
Fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring they’re evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Gather the dough into a ball and place it onto the prepared baking sheet. Flatten slightly with your hand or a spatula to form a thick disc (about 4-5 inches wide).
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center looks slightly underdone (it will set as it cools).
Let the cookie cool on the baking sheet for at least 5 minutes before transferring to a rack or enjoying directly from the pan!
