Ingredients

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
¼ cup light brown sugar (4 tablespoons)
2 teaspoons granulated sugar
1 large egg yolk
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt omit if you're using salted butter, a salted chocolate bar or Hu chocolate gems
½ cup all-purpose flour
¼ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350ºF.
Melt unsalted butter (3 tablespoons) in a microwave-safe mixing bowl. Stir in the granulated sugar (2 teaspoons) and light brown sugar (¼ cup), followed by the egg yolk (1 large), vanilla extract (½ teaspoon), baking soda (¼ teaspoon), and salt (¼ teaspoon). Add the all-purpose flour (½ cup) and stir until just incorporated. Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips (¼ cup).
Use your hands to form the dough into a giant ball.
Bake for 14-16 minutes, or until the edges are set, but the center looks under-baked. The cookie will continue to bake from the residual heat on the pan after you remove it from the oven.

Notes

If you use chopped chocolate bars or Hu chocolate gems or chopped chocolate, your cookies will flatten out more than if you use regular chocolate chips. Aka: the chocolate will melt into puddles, as shown in the image above!
