Instructions
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Melt the butter in a saucepan or microwave until just melted, not browned.
In a big bowl, stir together melted butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until smooth and creamy.
Mix in vanilla and the egg. Stir until well combined.
Add flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix until dough forms without overworking it.
Fold in chocolate chips and chunks gently.
Scoop dough onto greased or lined baking sheet, spacing cookies evenly.
Bake for 9 to 11 minutes until edges are slightly browned and centers are soft.
Let cool on baking sheet 5 minutes before transferring to a rack.
Notes
Store cookies in airtight container for 3-4 days or freeze dough for later baking. Microwave for a few seconds to bring back gooey warmth!
