Instructions
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the granulated sugar, butter, and brown sugar on high for 2 minutes to ensure that it is creamy and fluffy.
- Add in the eggs and egg yolks. Beat together for 30 seconds. Add in the vanilla extract and mix.
- Add in the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix together until incorporated.
- Form the dough into a rough ball and wrap in plastic wrap. Place the dough into the refrigerator to chill for at least 30 minutes.
- While the dough chills, preheat oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Once chilled, unwrap the dough. Roll the dough into 2-tablespoon-sized balls. Slightly flatten the dough into discs about 1½ inches in diameter. Place onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving at least 3 inches of space between each of them.
- Bake for 10-11 minutes. The edges should be just starting to brown. The centers will still be soft.
- Once baked, remove from the oven and place onto a cooling rack to cool completely.
- Once cool, place the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring often, until fully melted.
- Dip the cooled cookies halfway into the melted chocolate. Dip into or sprinkle with turbinado sugar. Let set at room temperature for 20 minutes or in the freezer for 10 minutes until hardened.
Notes
- To make these cookies ahead of time, make the cookie dough, place it in an airtight container, and freeze for up to 3 months. When you are ready to bake, place the cookie dough on the counter to thaw (about 30 minutes to 1 hour).
- Do not skip chilling this cookie dough as it helps prevent overspreading and develops more intense flavors.
- Storage: Store chocolate-dipped sugar cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, and in the freezer for up to 3 months (these cookies freeze best without chocolate dipping).

- Do not skip chilling this cookie dough as it helps prevent overspreading and develops more intense flavors.
- For a cracked top cookie, slam the pan down onto the baking rack every few minutes while baking.
- Due to the amount of butter in this dough, over mixing is not something to worry about as gluten development does not happen.
- You will know your cookies are done when the edges are slightly browned. Take them out of the oven at this point so they don't overbake.
