Philip Lemoine's Chewy Bakery Chocolate Chip

Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt; set aside.

In a large bowl, whisk together melted butter, packed brown sugar, and granulated white sugar until completely smooth.

Beat in the whole egg, extra egg yolk, and vanilla extract until the mixture becomes creamy, thick, and emulsified.

Add the dry flour mixture and fold with a spatula just until dough comes together and no flour streaks remain.

Fold in the semisweet chocolate chips until evenly dispersed.

Drop rounded 1-oz scoops of dough onto the baking sheet, spaced about 3 inches apart.

Bake at 325°F for 15-17 minutes until the edges are golden brown while the centers remain tender.

Cool briefly on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
