Ingredients
 

  • 270 g (2 ¼ cups) all-purpose flour spooned and leveled
  • 50 g (½ cup) Dutch-processed cocoa powder spooned and leveled
  • 70 g (½ cup) malted milk powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp fine sea salt
  • 226 g (1 cup) unsalted butter room temperature
  • 200 g (1 cup) light brown sugar packed
  • 100 g (½ cup) granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 240 g (8 oz) 70% dark chocolate chopped

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, malted milk powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  • Using an electric hand mixer or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream the butter and both sugars together on medium-high speed until light and fluffy (1-2 minutes).
  • Add the eggs in one at a time until well combined. Mix in the vanilla extract. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  • On low speed, add the flour in three additions until just combined. Scrape down the bottom and sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula to ensure everything is incorporated. Fold in the chocolate chunks.
  • Using a 3 tbsp cookie scoop, place the cookies on a baking sheet. Don't worry about spacing them out. Loosely cover with plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for 1 hour. 
  • About 20 minutes before removing the cookies from the fridge, preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Once the cookies have chilled, space them about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 11-13 minutes or until the edges have set and the centers look slightly underdone.
  • Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Serve with a glass of milk and a generous sprinkle of flaky sea salt if desired.
