Ingredients

  • 2 sticks butter softened
  • 2 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup light brown sugar lightly packed
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 egg lightly beaten
  • 8 oz bittersweet chocolate chunks I use chunks. Chips have wax as an ingredient.

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350º.
    Using a mixer fitted with paddle attachment, beat softened butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla on medium-high speed until super light and fluffy, 3–5 minutes.
 (You can also do this by hand with a wooden spoon and a large mixing bowl.)
    Blend in beaten egg.

    Using a spatula, scrape down sides of bowl. With mixer on low speed, slowly add flour and baking soda, followed by chocolate chunks, and beat just to blend.
    Drop dough in ping pong sized balls onto cookie sheet and bake in 350º oven for 15-20 minutes.
    Pour yourself a cup of hot tea and enjoy!
