Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment to cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. This should take about 2-3 minutes on medium speed.
- Beat in the vanilla extract until well combined.
- Add the egg and mix until fully incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, salt, and baking soda.
5. Mix Dry Ingredients with Wet:
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, blending on low speed just until combined. Do not overmix.
- Using a spatula, gently fold in the coarsely chopped dark chocolate chunks until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Scoop tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading. You can use a cookie scoop for uniform sizes.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers are still soft.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Tips:
- Use room temperature butter.: Let the butter sit out for about an hour before you begin. This will help it cream better with the sugars, resulting in a smooth and fluffy mixture.
- Don't overmix the dough.: Mix just until the ingredients are combined. Overmixing can lead to dense and tough cookies.
- Chill the dough before baking.: Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This helps to prevent the cookies from spreading too much and ensures they stay thick and chunky.
- Use high-quality chocolate.: Opt for high-quality dark chocolate for the best flavor. You can chop a chocolate bar into chunks for a more rustic feel.
- Experiment with add-ins.: Feel free to add nuts, dried fruit, or even a sprinkle of sea salt on top of the cookies before baking for an extra burst of flavor.
