Scale
- 12.6 oz (360 g) all-purpose flour
- 7 oz (200 g) butter
- 7 oz (200 g) brown sugar
- 1.7 oz (50 g) sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp almond extract
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- 1 egg
- 1 egg yolk
- 3.5 oz (100 g) dark chocolate, chopped
- 3.5 oz (100 g) milk chocolate, chopped
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix the butter, brown sugar, sugar, salt, almond extract, and vanilla extract for 1 minute until just combined.
- Add the egg and egg yolk to the mixture and stir until incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, combine the flour and baking powder. Gradually add this to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Fold in the chopped dark and milk chocolate until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Cover the dough and chill in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the dough to firm up.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
- Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Chill the dough for at least 24 hours to ensure thick and chewy cookies. You can substitute almond extract with more vanilla extract if preferred. Store cookies in an airtight container for up to a week.
