Ingredients

  • 3 tbsp butter, melted
  • 6 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • ½ cup flour
  • ¼ tsp baking soda
  • ⅛ tsp salt
  • ⅓ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 325F.
  • In a small bowl, whisk the butter and sugar together. 
  • Whisk in the vanilla and egg yolk until smooth and creamy.
  • Sprinkle the flour, baking soda, and salt over the wet ingredients. Stir until just mixed.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Use a cookie scoop to create eight equal portions.
  • Bake for 12-14 minutes. Do NOT over-bake. They may look underdone or gooey in the middle- but they will continue to bake while they cool.
  • Cool on the cookie sheet for 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack.
