- 2 tbsp (25 grams) granulated sugar
- 3 tbsp (37 grams) brown sugar
- 1 egg yolk
- 1/2 tsp (2 grams) vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp (1 gram) cornstarch

- 2/3 cup (115 grams) chocolate chips
What to do
do
1. Place butter and sugars in a medium bowl. Mix well with a rubber spatula. Add egg yolk and vanilla. Mix until combined.
2. Sift in dry ingredients, except chocolate chips. Mix well until just barely combined. Add chocolate chips. Mix again.
3. Form dough into one large ball and place on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Place cookie sheet in fridge for at least 30 minutes (no need to cover the dough).
4. Preheat oven to 375, remove cookie from fridge at rest at room temperature for about 10 minutes. Then bake for about 13-15 minutes, or when edges are golden brown and the top of the cookie looks puffed up but slightly underdone. Top with more chocolate chips and sea salt warm out of the oven. And enjoy!
INHALE warm or at room temperature!
*Pro tip: You can reheat your cookie at 350 degrees for about 5 minutes. This gives your cookies that fresh baked taste again!
FAQ’s
Helpful tips
Here are some important Pro tips by Maude
- Note: Cookie can be divided into 2 smaller cookies if desired! If you bake two cookies, start checking the oven at 10-11 minutes.
- Chilling cookie dough is a sure way to improve the flavor of your cookies! The chilling process allows the flour to moisten and the sugars and butter to get acquainted… which creates an almost butterscotch/caramel-like flavor to your cookies! In this recipe, I advise chilling the dough for about 30 minutes (uncovered) before baking.
- I often bake ugly looking cookies (LOL). To avoid and ugly single serve cookie, grab a soup bowl and place it over the cookie- give it a nice swirl, which helps the cookie return to a circular shape. Its a bomb technique, and no skill required!
