Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and place baking rack in center. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or nonstick foil.
Combine the flour, salt and baking soda in a food processor and pulse to mix. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture appears coarse and crumbly. Add sugars and the hard-boiled eggs. Pulse again until the mixture is mealy-looking. Add the vanilla and pulse again until the mixture just begins to come together. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and stir in the chocolate chips—you may need to use your hands to knead it all together; the dough will be thick. You will see egg whites in the dough—they’ll disappear as the cookies bake.
Shape the dough into 16 large balls. Arrange about 4 inches apart on the baking sheets and press down so that the tops are even. Bake one sheet at a time for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly browned around the edges. Let cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. The texture gets better as the cookies cool. It’s even better if you freeze the cooked cookies and then thaw them.
