Ingredients

• 1 cup Unsalted butter
• 1 cup Brown sugar (packed)
• 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
• 2 Large eggs
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 cup Dark chocolate chunks
• 1 cup Semisweet chocolate chips
• 0.5 teaspoon Flaky sea salt (optional, for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Continue cooking, stirring often, until the butter browns and develops a nutty aroma (about 5–7 minutes). Be careful not to burn it. Once browned, remove from heat and let cool to room temperature.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the browned butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Mix until creamy and smooth.

Step 4

Add the eggs, one at a time, to the butter-sugar mixture, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.

Step 6

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing.

Step 7

Fold in the dark chocolate chunks and semisweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed.

Step 8

Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 9

If desired, sprinkle a small pinch of flaky sea salt on top of each cookie before baking.

Step 10

Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers look just set. Do not overbake—they will continue to cook slightly after being removed from the oven.

Step 11

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 12

Enjoy your Not Your Mama’s Chocolate Chip Cookies with a glass of cold milk or your favorite hot beverage!
