#31. Best Chocolate Chunk Cookies

Simple, so simple, yet classic, and delicious, really delicious. Perfect for the new year munchies, or part of a dessert cookie table.. since there are so many recipes listed in just the past 30 days (no excuses). The difference with these cookies, is that they're better than using chocolate chips, the chunks are more gooey, and are all over the cookie. It contains bread flour, which gives the cookie a perfect chewiness. Just make them, describing them does them no justice. They are a crowd pleaser, that's all you need to know. Oh, and happy new year! Now start going to the gym :).

This recipe makes about 3 dozen cookies.

In a large bowl cream:
2 sticks of butter (room temp) with
3/4C sugar and
3/4C dark brown sugar with 1t vanilla extract. Mix well till lighter in color.
Add 2 eggs, one at a time till mixed in.

In a smaller bowl put the dry ingredients:
1C all purpose flour
1C bread flour
1t baking soda
1/2t salt

stir a little and mix into the large bowl, until just combined, then add the chocolate until combined.

9oz semi sweet chocolate, cut up into what ever size desired chunks
4oz milk chocolate cut up into chunks

Use teaspoons to put the dough onto parchment paper. They will spread, so only put about 8 cookies onto 1 sheet tray. Bake at 350F for about 8-10 minutes, till slightly golden. Don't over bake.
