Ingredients
-
170g (12 tablespoon) unsalted butter, cut into pieces

200g (1 cup) packed dark brown sugar (light brown also works)
-
100g (1/2 cup) granulated sugar
-
1 large egg, room temperature
-
1 large egg yolk, room temperature
-
30mL (2 tablespoon) whole milk
-
15mL (1 tablespoon) pure vanilla extract
-
335g (2 2/3 cups) all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled

1 tsp salt

1 tsp baking soda
-
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
-
220g (1 1/3 cup) 45% cocoa chocolate bars, chopped

01
Adding the wet ingredients
-
Preheat the oven to 175 degrees Celsius (350 F). Line 2 baking sheets with baking paper
-
Brown the butter in a glass bowl and let it cool for 10–15 minutes.
-
Using a hand mixer, beat the sugars into the browned butter.
-
Add the egg, egg yolk, milk, and vanilla; beat until combined.
02
Adding the dry ingredients
-
Sift in the flour, salt, baking soda, and baking powder. Fold until just combined.
-
Mix in half the chopped chocolate.
-
Scoop cookie dough into balls. Dunk each ball into the remaining chocolate, pressing slightly to ensure the chocolate sticks. Flatten slightly if needed


03
Baking the Cookies
-
Arrange on the prepared baking sheets and bake for 10–11 minutes bake around 6 per sheet (there should be around 20), until edges are light golden and centres look slightly gooey.
-
(Optional) Swirl a cup around the cookies' edges immediately after baking for a perfect circular shape.
-
Let cookies rest on the sheet for 2–3 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack. Garnish with flaky sea salt if desired.
