Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
2 cups (240g) cake flour
2 cups (240g) bread flour
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
1 ¼ teaspoons baking soda
1 ½ teaspoons salt
1 ¼ cups (282g) unsalted butter, softened
1 ¼ cups + 3 tbsp (284g) firmly packed light brown sugar
1 cup + 2 tbsp (227g) granulated sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 ¼ pounds (567g) bittersweet chocolate discs (about 60% cacao)
sea salt
Directions:
Directions:
1. Thoroughly whisk together (or sift) the cake flour, bread flour, baking powder, baking soda,
and salt. Set aside.

2. Using a mixer with the paddle attachment, beat the butter, brown sugar, and sugar until
light and fluffy (about 5 minutes). Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each
addition. Mix in the vanilla.

3. Reduce mixer speed to low. Add the flour mixture, mixing just until combined (about 10
seconds). Stir in the chocolate discs, trying not to break them.

4. Cover the dough with plastic wrap, pressing the plastic directly against the dough. Chill for
24 to 72 hours.

5. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone liner.

6. Divide the dough into 100g portions. Place the mounds of dough on the prepared pans. (You
can get about 6 cookies on a pan, but I often just bake 4 at a time to give them a little more
space to spread.) Sprinkle the top of each cookie with a pinch of sea salt.

7. Bake 18 to 20 minutes, or until golden brown but still soft.

8. Cool on the pans on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Then transfer the cookies to a rack to cool
completely.
