Ingredients
- 2 cups bread flour
- 2 cups cake flour
- 1 ¼ tsp baking powder
- ⅛ tsp cream of tartar (a pinch)
- ½ tsp kosher salt
- 1 ¼ tsp baking soda
- 2 ½ ticks butter (unsalted)
- 1 ¼ cups brown sugar
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 eggs (large)
- 2 tsp vanilla extract (natural)
- 3 cups bittersweet chocolate (discs, chips, chunks or fèves, about 60% cacao content)
Instructions
Make the Cookie Dough:
- Sift first 6 dry ingredients together into a bowl.
- Using another mixer bowl (using a paddle), cream butter and sugars together until very light, about 5 minutes.
- Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each egg. Stir in vanilla.
- On low speed, add the dry ingredients and mix until just combined, 5 to 10 seconds.
- Drop chocolate chunks or pieces in and incorporate them without breaking them (I use a spatula).
- Press plastic wrap against dough and refrigerate for 24 to 36 hours. Afterwards, either bake or freeze the dough.
Bake the Cookies:
- Preheat oven to 350°F/175° C.
- Place 2 ½ ounce scoops of dough onto a silicone sheet lined cookie sheet. Bake until golden brown but still soft, 15-18 minutes.
- Remove and place on a cooling rack. Repeat with remaining dough, or keep dough refrigerated.

Notes
- Alternatively, you can shape the cookies then freeze on a tray and then place in a bag to keep frozen, to bake another time. To bake from frozen: place on cookie sheet and leave for an hour, then bake as instructed.
- If you choose not to weigh your ingredients, please realize that your results will vary each and every time you make these. Weight is the only way to guarantee good results.
- The chocolate amount will vary if you use cups due to the size difference of your choice of chocolate. I recommend a scale.
- DO NOT USE HERSHEYS, NESTLE or other US type chocolate as these do not have 60% cacao
- Alternatively, you can shape the cookies then freeze on a tray and then place in a bag to keep frozen, to bake another time. To bake from frozen: place on cookie sheet and leave for an hour, then bake as instructed.
