Ingredients

• ·         8 ounces unsalted butter
• ·         12 ounces bread flour
• ·         1 teaspoon kosher salt
• ·         1 teaspoon baking soda
• ·         2 ounces granulated sugar
• ·         8 ounces light brown sugar
• ·         1 large egg
• ·         1 large egg yolk
• ·         1 ounce whole milk
• ·         1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• ·         12 ounces semisweet chocolate chips

Instructions

Step 1

In a 2-quart saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Place aside to gently cool.

 

Step 2

On a paper plate, combine the flour, salt, and baking soda. Put the butter in the mixing bowl of your stand mixer. Add the sugar and brown sugar, then beat for 2 minutes on medium speed with the paddle attachment.

Step 3

In the meantime, whisk the milk, vanilla extract, whole egg, egg yolk, and other ingredients in a measuring cup. Slowly add the egg mixture while lowering the mixer speed. Mix for 30 seconds or so, or until completely incorporated.

Step 4

The dry ingredients should be gradually incorporated using the paper plate as a slide, pausing a few times to scrape the bowl's sides. Drop the speed to "stir" after the flour has been incorporated, then add the chocolate chips. The dough needs an hour to chill.

Step 5

Place racks in the top and bottom thirds of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F.

Step 6

Scoop the dough onto half-sheet pans coated with parchment, 6 cookies per sheet, in 1 1/2-ounce chunks. 15 minutes, 2 sheets at a time, turning the pans halfway through the baking time. Remove the parchment with the cookies from the oven, place them on a cooling rack, and let them cool for at least five minutes before eating.
