These cookies benefit from a bourbon based vanilla extract. Make sure not to burn the butter but take it right to that point for the best flavor.

Ingredients
  • 8¾ ounces unbleached all-purpose flour
  • ½ t baking soda
  • 7 ounces unsalted butter (divided 5oz and 2oz)
  • 3½ ounces granulated sugar
  • 5¼ ounces dark brown sugar
  • 1 t table salt
  • 2 T vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 large egg yolk

  2. Whisk flour and baking soda together in medium bowl; set aside.

  6. Let mixture stand 3 minutes, then whisk for 30 seconds. Repeat process of resting and whisking 2 more times until mixture is thick, smooth, and shiny.
  7. Stir in flour mixture until just combined, about 1 minute.
  8. Stir in chocolate chips giving dough final stir to ensure no flour pockets remain.
  9. Divide dough into 16 portions using a #24 cookie scoop
  10. Arrange 2 inches apart on prepared baking sheets, 8 dough balls per sheet.
  11. Bake cookies 1 tray at a time until cookies are golden brown and still puffy, and edges have begun to set but centers are still soft, 9 minutes,
  12. Transfer baking sheet to wire rack; cool cookies completely before serving.
Notes
Don't overbake this cookie. They are done when cracks first start to appear in the top and the edges are just browning.
