Who doesn’t love a challenge??🍪 Ingredients - Cooking spray - 1 cup salted butter, softened - 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar - 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar - 1 large egg - 3 Tbsp. water - 2 tsp. vanilla extract - 2 cups all-purpose flour - 1/2 tsp. baking soda - 1/2 tsp. table salt - 1/2 cup coarsely chopped semisweet chocolate (from 1 [4-oz.] bar) - 1/2 cup coarsely chopped 60% cacao bittersweet chocolate (from 1 [4-oz.] bar) - Flaky sea salt (optional) Directions 1. Preheat oven to 350°F with rack in middle position. Lightly coat 3 large rimmed baking sheets with cooking spray, and line each with aluminum foil, dull side up. Set aside. 2. Beat butter with a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment on medium speed until creamy, about 30 seconds. Gradually add granulated sugar and brown sugar, beating on medium speed until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add egg, water, and vanilla; beat on low speed just until combined, about 1 minute. 3. Whisk together flour, baking soda, and table salt in a medium bowl. Gradually add to butter mixture, beating on low speed just until combined, about 1 minute. 4. Add semisweet and bittersweet chocolate, beating on low speed just until incorporated, about 15 seconds. Shape dough evenly into 10 large balls (a heaping 1/3 cup, or about 3 1/2 ounces, each). 5. Place 2 of the cookie balls on a plate, and freeze 15 minutes (set aside remaining cookie balls at room temperature until ready to use). Arrange frozen balls on 1 of the prepared baking sheets, spaced 4 inches apart from each other and the rim (cookies will spread to 6-inch circles as they bake). 6. Bake in preheated oven 10 minutes (cookies will look slightly puffed in the centers). Open oven door; lift the front of the baking sheet up about 4 inches from rack, then let it drop down onto rack. Close oven door, and continue baking cookies 2 minutes. 7. Repeat procedure of lifting and dropping baking sheet on oven rack and baking cookies for 2 minutes until cookies spread out and look rippled, cookie edges are golden brown, and cookie centers look lighter and not fully cooked, 2 or 3 additional times, for a total of 16 to 18 minutes baking time. 8. Transfer baking sheet with baked cookies to a wire rack; if desired, sprinkle with flaky sea salt. Let cookies cool on baking sheet completely, about 10 minutes. Remove cookies from baking sheet. 9. While first batch of cookies bakes and cools, repeat Steps 4 and 5 with remaining cookie balls, 2 at a time per batch. #chocolatechipcookierecipe #southerndessert #cookierecipes
