Servings

Ingredients
  • 2 1/2 sticks unsalted butter (at room temperature)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 1/4 cup dark brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 3 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 pound four ounces valrhona dulcey chocolate chopped into small pieces
  • 1/4 cup coarse sea salt, such as maldon
  • 1 pound valrhona sixty-one percent dark chocolate
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt, set aside. In a stand mixer, fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugars on medium speed until light and fluffy. Then, add the eggs one at a time, scraping down the bowl after each addition. Add the vanilla extract and mix until combined. On low speed, add the flour mixture in two instalments and mix until just incorporated.
  3. Next, add the chocolate and mix until evenly distributed.
  4. Scoop the dough using a 1.5 ounce ice cream scoop onto two parchment lined cookie sheets. Sprinkle the tops of each cookies with a few flakes of the Maldon salt. Bake for 12 to 16 minutes until the edges are golden brown but the centers of the cookies are still light. Let cool on the pan.
  5. Microwave the 61% chocolate until two thirds of the chocolate is melted. stir the chocolate so the residual heat melts the remaining chocolate. Dip half of each cookie into the melted 61% chocolate, let the excess chocolate drip off the cookie before laying back on the parchment lined cookie sheets. Let sit so the chocolate hardens. If desired, decorate the cookies with a colored cocoa butter “transfer sheet” or draw stripes with melted white chocolate.
