• 1 1/4 tsp kosher salt

Preparation

Step 1

Combine the bread flour, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl.Melt the butter slowly. Add the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Beat the butter and the granulated sugar and dark brown sugar until combined. Add the egg and the vanilla and beat on medium slow speed until incorporated. With the mixer on low speed, gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until all incorporated. Scrape down the bowl as needed. Add in the chocolate chips and mix until incorporated. Allow to rest for 1 hour.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheets with foil or parchment paper. Using a large scoop, drop 6 dough balls onto each cookie sheet. Bake for 11-14 minutes, just until the edges are lightly browned. Slide the cookies on the foil or parchment off the cookies sheet as soon as they come out of the oven.

The cookies will be just slightly crunchy on the edges when cooled. If you want a completely chewy cookie and can resist eating them right away, store in an airtight container overnight and the cookies will be very chewy and soft in the morning. Makes 12-16 large cookies.
