Ingredients

  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips 170 grams
  • 1 ½ tablespoons butter unsalted (21 grams)
  • 1 large egg 50 grams
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar 50 grams
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla
  • ½ cup all purpose flour 63 grams
  • ¼ teaspoon baking powder

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F and line a cookie sheet with parchment.
  • Melt the chips and butter in a double boiler or heat proof bowl set over a saucepan of boiling water. You may also melt in microwave. Set aside and let cool slightly.
  • Beat egg and sugar with an electric mixer. When light and fluffy, beat in salt and vanilla. Gradually beat in the slightly cooled chocolate.
  • Stir the flour and baking powder together, then add to the egg mixture and stir until mixed.
  • If your batter isn't thick enough to scoop, cover and chill for 20 to 30 minutes until it holds its shape when scooped.
  • Scoop 8 rounded tablespoon size balls onto a lined baking sheet.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes. Let cool on cookie sheet for about 3 minutes, then transfer to rack to cool.
  • Best served warm. To reheat, microwave on high power 10 seconds per cookie.
