Directions

  1. 1In a bowl add all purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, milk powder, espresso powder , corn starch and salt. Mix well to combine.
  2. 2In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add the cold cubed butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar.
  3. 3Mix on medium speed for about 2–3 minutes, until the mixture looks creamy.
  4. 4Add the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla bean paste.
  5. 5Mix until fully combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  6. 6Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture.
  7. 7Mix on low speed just until combined—do not overmix.
  8. 8Stir in the semi-sweet and milk chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  9. 9Cover and refrigerate the dough for at least 2 hours ( or up to 24 hours for deeper flavor and thicker cookies).
  10. 10Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  11. 11Scoop large portions of dough (about ounce each) and roll loosely into balls. For a bakery look, keep them tall rather than flattened.
  12. 12Bake for 15-16 minutes, or until Edges are set and lightly golden. Centers are still soft and slightly underbaked.
  13. 13Sprinkle flaky sea salt on top immediately after baking.
  14. 14Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5–10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
