Chocolate Chip Cookies

These cookies contain crack. Okay so maybe they don't but I have become addicted to them. They aren't too sweet and by far the best chocolate chip cookies I've ever had.

Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients:

2 cups plus 2 tablespoons flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
12 tablespoons butter*
1 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 sugar
1 egg plus one egg yolk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

*I used salted but the original recipe calls for unsalted

Directions:

Preheat oven to 325* and cover two cookie sheets with parchment paper. Combine dry ingredients together in a medium bowl and set aside. Cream together butter, sugar, and brown sugar. Thoroughly, beat in egg, yolk, and vanilla. Slowly add dry ingredients while mixing. Stir in chocolate chips.
Roll a scant half cup of dough into a ball. Break ball in half and place jagged surface facing up onto cookie sheets. Leave plenty of space between balls of dough. Bake until cookies are a light, golden brown with the edges of the cookies slightly hardened while the centers remain soft (11-14 minutes). Cool cookies on sheets until able to lift to a wire rack to cool the rest of the way.
