Ingredients

  • 1 stick butter, browned and cooled slightly
  • 1 egg
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 cup light brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cup flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 cup milk chocolate chunks, plus more for the topping
  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chunks, plus more for the topping
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts, optional
  • 1 pinch flaky sea salt, to garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  • In a large mixing bowl, add browned butter (make sure it's cooled enough so that it doesn't scramble your eggs), egg, egg yolk, brown sugar, sugar, and vanilla. Whisk to combine.
  • To the same bowl, add flour, salt, and baking powder. Stir to fully combine and a dough is formed. Fold in chocolate chunks and walnuts (if using), but do not over-mix.
  • Press the dough evenly into a greased 10" cast iron skillet. Sprinkle a few more chocolate chunks and walnuts onto the top of the cookie dough.
  • Bake at 375 degrees F for 20 - 25 minutes, or until the top of the cookie is golden brown and the center reaches 200 degrees F.
  • Remove from the oven and sprinkle with flaky sea salt if desired. Cool slightly. Serve warm with a heaping scoop of vanilla ice cream!
