Ingredients

The following ingredients have 6 Servings
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 cup old-fashioned oats
  • 9 ounces 60 percent cocoa bittersweet chocolate baking bar, chopped, divided
  • 3/4 cup butter, room temperature
  • 1 cup dark brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg plus one egg yolk
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, mix flour, baking powder, salt, oats, and chocolate chunks (reserve 1/4 cup chocolate chunks to top cookie dough with before baking).  Set aside.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter and sugars together on medium speed until smooth.  Add eggs one at a time and mix again.  Add vanilla and mix.
  • Turn the mixer to low speed and gradually add the flour mixture.  Mix until everything is fully incorporated into a dough, but do not over-mix.
  • Use a 1/4 cup measuring cup to scoop large dough balls onto the parchment paper lined baking sheet, baking six dough balls at a time.  Place a few chocolate chunks onto the top of the dough ball before baking.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 15-17 minutes.  Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet a few minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
