Ingredients

  • 2⅛ cups 10.23 ounces all purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon table salt
  • 1 cup packe 7 ounces light brown sugar
  • ½ cup 3½ ounces granulated sugar
  • 12 tablespoons unsalted butter melted and cooled
  • 1 large egg plus 1 large egg yolk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 cup 6 ounces semisweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Line a large and a small rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or use a Silpat.
  • Whisk flour, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl. Set aside.
  • Whisk brown sugar and granulated sugar together in a mixing bowl. Whisk in melted butter until combined. Whisk in egg and yolk and vanilla until smooth. 
  • Gently stir in flour mixture with a sturdy spoon until a soft dough forms. Fold in chocolate chips.
  • Preheat the air fryer or toaster oven on the bake setting to 350 degrees.
  • Working with 2 tablespoons at a time, roll into balls. (I like to use a #30 scoop to portion out the dough evenly.) Space desired number of dough balls at least 11/2 inches apart on prepared small baking sheet; space remaining dough balls evenly on prepared large sheet. Using the bottom of a greased or floured dry measuring cup, press each ball until 2 inches in diameter.
  • Bake small sheet of cookies until the edges are just beginning to brown and centers are soft and puffy, 10 to 15 minutes. Let cookies cool slightly on the sheet. Serve warm or at room temperature. 
  • Freeze the remaining large sheet of cookies until firm, about 1 hour. Transfer cookies to a 1-gallon zipper-lock bag and freezer for up to 1 month. Bake frozen cookies as directed; do not thaw.
