Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
2 c. minus 2 T. (8 ½ oz.) cake flour
1 ⅔ c. bread flour
1 ¼ tsp. baking soda
1 ½ tsp. baking powder
1 ¼ c. butter, room temperature (I use salted)
1 ¼ c. light brown sugar
1 c. plus 2 T. granulated sugar
2 large eggs
2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
1 ¼ lbs. chopped dark or semi-sweet chocolate chunks or disks
Flaked sea salt to sprinkle
Directions:
Directions:
In a large bowl, sift together (or whisk) the cake flour, bread flour, baking soda, and baking powder. Set aside.

In the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment mix the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together for 5 minutes, until light and fluffy. Add in the eggs one at a time until mixed, and then add vanilla. Continue mixing for an additional minute, scraping the sides as necessary.

Turn mixer to low and add in the flour mixture, until just combined. Fold in the chocolate until evenly incorporated. Cover and chill dough for 24-72 hours.

When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350ºF. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Allow the chilled dough to sit out at room temperature for 20-30 minutes before baking to soften slightly. Scoop out 3.5 oz. of dough for each cookie, using a large cookie scoop. This is approximately ¼ c. Place mounds onto your baking sheet, spacing them 3-in. apart.

Bake cookies for 15-18 minutes, until the edges are golden. Turn your baking sheet 180º once, halfway through baking.

Remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle with sea salt. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Grandma Maude would say "Lawsy me Thelma, look who's here!" when I went to visit and Grandma Thelma always cried when we left. I am also named after Grandma - same middle name "Lucille."
