Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 1½ teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 8 ounces bittersweet chocolate (chopped)

Instructions

  1. Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring frequently until it turns deep golden brown, about 5-7 minutes. Allow to cool for 10 minutes.
  2. Preheat your oven to 350°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cornstarch until well combined.
  4. In a stand mixer, beat the cooled brown butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  5. Add the egg, egg yolk, vanilla extract, and milk to the mixture, and mix until smooth.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture until a soft dough forms.
  7. Fold in the chopped bittersweet chocolate until evenly distributed.
  8. Scoop and shape the dough into large balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets. Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes.
  9. Bake the cookies for 10 minutes, banging the cookie sheet against the counter to flatten them, then bake for an additional 3-4 minutes, until the edges are golden and the centers are slightly underbaked.
  10. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

Chill the dough to prevent spreading. Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
