Easy, no fuss chocolate chip cookies that are slightly browned and crisp on the edges, but mostly ooey gooey and can be made without a mixer and no chill time.

Scale
  • 2 1/2 C (335g) All purpose flour
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1/4 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1 C (2 sticks) Salted Butter, melted and cooled slightly
  • 3/4 C (165g) Light Brown Sugar
  • 1/2 C (110g) Granulated Sugar
  • 1 Lg Egg (+ 1 Yolk)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 and line two cookie sheets with parchment paper.

  • Add the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla and whisk another 2 minutes. 
  • Fold in the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt with a rubber spatula until just combined.
  • Fold in the chocolate.
  • Use a large 3 TBSP cookie scoop to scoop the dough onto the prepared sheet pans. 5 cookies per sheet.
