Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 eggs, room temperature
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup dark chocolate chunks
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the vanilla extract and eggs to the butter-sugar mixture. Beat again until fully incorporated.
In a separate medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and kosher salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Fold in the semisweet chocolate chips and dark chocolate chunks using a spatula, ensuring even distribution.
Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop 2-tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers look slightly underbaked.
Remove cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm with a glass of milk or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
