Melt in your mouth chocolate chip cookies.
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2/3 cup light brown sugar
- 1 rounded tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 large free range egg
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract (optional)
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup milk chocolate chunks
- 1 tsp Maldon sea salt for the tops
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
-
Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper.
-
In a bowl, combine the dry ingredients with a whisk.
-
In another bowl, mix the melted butter and both the brown sugar and granulated sugar with a wooden spoon. Then add the egg and vanilla. Whisk until well combined.
-
Add the dry ingredients and the chocolate chips to the wet ingredients. Stir with a wooden spoon just until combined.
-
Refrigerate the dough for an hour.
-
Use a large spoon or an ice cream scoop to form 6 cookies on each cookie sheet. Leave at least 3 inches between the cookies. Top each cookie with milk chocolate chunks.
-
Bake for 12 minutes at 350 degrees or until the bottoms of the cookies are golden brown.

Sprinkle a little finishing salt on each cookie when they first come out of the oven.
- If you don't have unsalted butter on hand, just use salted butter and leave out the 1/4 tsp salt.
