• servings: 24 servings
• total time: 4 hours 30 minutes

Ingredients

2 2/3 c. (320 g.) all-purpose flour

1 tsp. baking soda

1 tsp. kosher salt

1 1/4 c. (2 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted

3/4 c. (150 g.) packed light brown sugar

1/2 c. (100 g.) granulated sugar

2 large eggs

1 tsp. pure vanilla extract

1 c. (170 g.) semisweet chocolate chips

1 c. (120 g.) coarsely chopped chocolate wafers or discs (or from a bar), preferably 70% cacao or higher

Directions

In a medium bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, and salt until combined.

In a large bowl, whisk butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until combined and creamy. Add eggs and vanilla and whisk to combine. Add dry ingredients and stir with a rubber spatula until about halfway mixed in. Add chips and wafers and fold until just combined. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 4 hours or up to 24.

Preheat oven to 350°. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment. Using a large cookie scoop (about 3 tablespoons), scoop dough onto prepared sheets, spacing about 3" apart.

Bake cookies until edges are golden brown and just set and centers are almost set, 12 to 14 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool slightly.
