Beat in eggs with spoon one at a time until blended. Beat in vanilla. Stir in flour mixture until well blended. Stir in remaining chocolate chips. Cover and refrigerate 30 minutes.
• Shape dough into 50 (1 1/4 -inch) balls. Lightly butter hands if dough is sticky when shaping into balls. In small bowl, place remaining 1/2 cup sugar. Roll balls in sugar. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets; flatten slightly. Discard sugar after rolling balls.
• Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until edges are set. Cool 2 minutes; remove from cookie sheets to cooling rack. Cool completely, at least 20 minutes. Store covered in airtight container.

ABSOLUTELY PERFECT DARK CHOCOLATE COOKIES

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
• In the bowl of an electric stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together butter and sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in eggs and vanilla on medium speed until combined.
• Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet, combining on low speed until fully incorporated.
• Smooth the dough into a large disc, wrap tightly in plastic wrap, and chill for about 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 350˚F. Line two baking sheets with silicone baking mats or parchment paper.
• Roll dough into 1.5-inch balls and then roll them in demerera or sanding sugar. Place them on the baking sheets about 1.5 inches apart.
• Bake for about 8 minutes. Cool on the sheets for a few minutes before transferring to wire racks. Once cool, seal them up in an airtight container with a paper towel to keep the cookies soft.

THE BEST CHEWY CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together the sugars, salt, and butter until a paste forms with no lumps.
• Whisk in the egg and vanilla, beating until light ribbons fall off the whisk and remain for a short while before falling back into the mixture.
• Sift in the flour and baking soda, then fold the mixture with a spatula (Be careful not to overmix, which would cause the gluten in the flour to toughen resulting in cakier cookies).
• Fold in the chocolate chunks, then chill the dough for at least 30 minutes. For a more intense toffee-like flavor and deeper color, chill the dough overnight. The longer the dough rests, the more complex its flavor will be.
• Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Scoop the dough with an ice-cream scoop onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, leaving at least 4 inches (10 cm) of space between cookies and 2 inches (5 cm) of space from the edges of the pan so that the cookies can spread evenly.
• Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges have started to barely brown.
• Cool completely before serving.
• Enjoy!

DARK-CHOCOLATE COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Make the cookies: Whisk together flour, cocoa, and salt in a bowl. In another bowl, cream butter and sugar until pale and fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla. Gradually add flour mixture, beating to combine. Shape dough into 2 disks, wrap each in plastic, and freeze until firm, about 15 minutes.
• Working with 1 disk at a time, roll out dough to 1/8-inch thickness on a lightly floured surface. Using a 1 1/2-inch biscuit cutter, cut out rounds. (Return dough to freezer if it softens.) Space rounds 1 inch apart on parchment-lined baking sheets. Freeze until firm, about 15 minutes. Brush off excess flour.
• Bake cookies, rotating sheets once, until edges are firm, 12 to 14 minutes. Transfer cookies, on parchment, to a wire rack, and let cool completely.
• Meanwhile, make the filling: Place chocolate in a medium bowl. Heat cream, sugar, and salt in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring until sugar and salt dissolve. Pour over chocolate. Let stand for 10 minutes. Gently stir until smooth. Let stand until firm enough to spread, about 15 minutes.
• Spread 1 1/2 teaspoons filling on half the cookies. Top with remaining cookies.
