Ingredients

Directions

Special equipment:
1.5-ounce scoop
  1. Place the butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium speed until homogenous and a bit fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add in the eggs and vanilla. Beat until just combined.
  2. Whisk together the flour, salt and baking soda in a large bowl. Pour half of the dry ingredients into the butter mixture and beat on low speed until combined. Repeat with the remaining dry ingredients until a dough comes together. Add the chocolate chips and beat until evenly distributed. Chill the dough for at least 2 hours, or overnight.   
  3. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. 
  4. Use a 1.5-ounce scoop to shape the cookie dough into large mounds on the prepared baking sheets. Be sure to leave about 1 inch of space between the cookies. Sprinkle the tops of the cookies generously with the flaky sea salt.   
  5. Bake the cookies until lightly golden brown around the edges, 9 to 11 minutes; the center will still look slightly soft. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 2 minutes. Serve warm.
