Ingredients


1 1/4 cup Wheat flour, whole wheat (Organic All purpose Flour)
1/2 tsp Baking soda
1/2 tsp Baking powder
3/4 tsp Salt (Pink Himalayan)
1/2 cup Butter, unsalted (melted or room temperature)
1/2 cup Brown sugar (light; packed)
1/3 cup Cane sugar (Organic)
2 tsp Vanilla extract, pure
1 large Egg
1 1/2 cup Semisweet chocolate chips, mini (Organic semisweet; chips (I use Ghirardelli) + more for topping)
1/4 tsp Salt (Flaky sea)

Instructions


  1. Preheat the oven to 350F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, add the melted /room temp butter, brown sugar, and sugar. It’s important that the butter is not hot, but it can be slightly warm. Whisk vigorously for 1-2 minutes until it turns into a paste-like consistency (see picture in post for reference).
  4. Whisk in the egg and vanilla until smooth.
  5. Pour in the dry ingredients and use a rubber spatula to fold to combine. Leave a few streaks of flour and pour in the chocolate chips. Continue to fold the dough until the chocolate chips are dispersed and the flour is completely blended in. Do not over mix.
  6. A large 2oz cookie scoop (or 1/4 measuring cup) is preferred for this recipe. Scoop 5 cookies onto the baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes (12 for a more gooey cookie, 15 more a more well done cookie). If you do not have a large scoop or prefer regular-sized cookies, scoop 6 cookies onto the baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes.
  7. The cookies are ready when they have a golden ring around the edge but are pale and puffed in the center. The cookies will continue to bake outside oven and will slowly flatten and settle as they cool.
  8. When they’re fresh from the oven, top with a few extra chocolate chips and sprinkle with sea salt.
  9. Transfer to a cooling rack and continue to bake the rest of the dough.
  10. Let the cookies cool for about 20 minutes before eating. They’re best when they’re slightly warm and the chocolate chips are still melty. Enjoy!
