Ingredients

• 1 cup salted butter
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 2 eggs

Instructions

1. Melt the butter in a saucepan until the color darkens, about 5 minutes. Allow it to cool for 10 minutes before transferring to a stand mixer.

3. Scrape the sides and add the molasses and vanilla, mixing again for another minute.
4. Slowly add the heavy whipping cream. You may have to scrape the sides of the bowl to make sure it all mixes well.
5. Add the flour, salt, and baking soda and mix for another 2 minutes.
6. Add the chocolate chips and stir by hand.
7. Coarsely chop about ½ to ¾ cup of chocolate chunks to create a variety of large and small chunks throughout the cookies.
8. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
9. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
10. Place approximately 3 tbsp portions of cookie dough onto the lined baking sheets, about 12 to 15 portions per sheet.
11. Bake for 11-13 minutes and remove from the oven.
12. Lightly sprinkle more Coarse Kosher Sea Salt on top of the cookies before transferring to a cooling rack.
