Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 3/4 cup butter, cubed and softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 1/4 cups + 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 8 oz (227 g) Nestle semisweet chocolate morsels
- 8 oz (227 g) high-quality semi-sweet chocolate, broken into small pieces
- 2 cups (473 ml) coarsely crushed pretzel sticks
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Butter a baking sheet or line with parchment paper.
- For the Soup:
- In a mixer, beat butter and both sugars until creamy (about 2-3 minutes). Add eggs and vanilla, beating until well blended.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing just until blended.
- Stir in chocolate morsels by hand using a spatula. Form tablespoon-sized balls of dough and place on baking sheet, spaced 2 inches apart. Press chocolate chunks and crushed pretzels onto the top of each cookie.
- Bake for 10 to 14 minutes, or until edges are lightly browned. Remove from oven and let cool on wire racks.
Notes
- For chewier cookies, chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking.
- Substitute milk chocolate chips for the semisweet chocolate morsels for a milder flavor.
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
