Crispy Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies
These crispy + chewy chocolate chip cookies are crispy on the outsides, chewy on the insides, and loaded with ooey gooey pools of dark chocolate, then finished with flaky sea salt.
Ingredients
- ½ cup butter softened, unsalted, 1 stick
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup dark brown sugar packed
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 ⅓ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
- 6 ounces dark chocolate roughly chopped
- ½ cup pecans optional, chopped
- sea salt such as Maldon (optional, flaky
Notes
- This step is optional, but I find the cookies come out even better after the dough has chilled. Cover and refrigerate the dough for at least 3 hours, or up to 48 (overnight is best) before baking.
- Store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. These cookies are best when fresh so I recommend freezing the dough in balls and baking them straight from frozen when ready. Add 2-3 minutes to the baking time when baking from frozen.
