Equipment

  • Digital Food Scale
  • Stand Mixer
  • Half Sheet Pan
  • Parchment Paper Sheets

Ingredients
 
 

  • 113 grams salted butter (softened)
  • 113 grams cane sugar
  • 113 grams dark brown sugar (packed)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 284 grams all purpose flour
  • 1 ½ tablespoons King Arthur Malted Milk Powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 198 grams semi sweet chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add the butter, cane sugar, dark brown sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix on low until combined and there are no chunks of butter. Add the eggs and mix just slightly.
  • In a separate bowl, add the dry ingredients: flour, malt powder, baking soda, and sea salt and whisk together. Add the flour mixture and the chocolate chips to the butter mixture and mix on low until combined into a stiff dough.
  • Using your hands, form 24 balls of cookie dough and flatten them so they are 2-inches in diameter. Space them at least 1-inch apart on the cookie sheets. You'll have 12 cookies per sheet. If you want to add extra chocolate chips on top of each cookie, now is the time to do that.
  • Bake for 11 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool completely on the cookie sheets.
  • Store in an airtight container for up to 7 days.

Notes

Tips
  • Always weigh ingredients for the best results.
  • Be sure to use softened butter. It's best to let your butter sit out on the counter to soften naturally. If you have to microwave it, you can do 10 second intervals. You don't want to microwave for more than that at one time as you can melt portions of the butter.
  • I use dark brown sugar for a more rich flavor. You can use light brown, but the flavor won't be as intense.
  • You can use any kind of chocolate here, milk chocolate, dark chocolate, or even white chocolate. Choose your preference!
  • Feel free to add a flaky sea salt on top after baking if you like sweet and salty cookies (like me!)
  • High Altitude — Bake at 375°F for 8 minutes or until golden brown.
