Course Dessert, quick & easy
- 1 cup unsalted butter softened
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ½ cup white sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 egg
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup chopped dark chocolate
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
In a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream together butter and both sugars, until lightened in color, about 4 minutes. Add in vanilla extract, and egg. Mix until fully incorporated.
Pour in all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Beat together until a slightly sticky dough forms. Fold in chocolate chunks.
With an ice cream scooper, plop rounds of dough onto a greased cookie sheet an inch apart. They will spread so be cautious. Bake for 12 minutes for a slightly underdone doughy middle, and 14 minutes for a soft cookie. Serve warm with a glass of milk.
