Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • Stand mixer with paddle attachment or Hand mixer
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Baking sheet lined with parchment paper
  • Cookie scoop (optional)

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon corn starch
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup white granulated sugar
  • ½ cup light brown sugar
  • ¾ cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 eggs, room temperature
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • ½ cup dark chocolate chunks
  • flaky sea salt (optional)

Instructions
 

  • In a mixing bowl combine all purpose flour, corn starch, baking soda and salt. Mix until well incorporated and set aside.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer (or mixing bowl with hand mixer) combine white sugar, brown sugar and olive oil. Mix on medium high speed for 1-2 minutes until well combined.
    Turn the mixer to medium speed and add eggs one at a time along with vanilla extract. Then mix on medium high speed for about a minute.
  • Add about half of the dry mixture into the bowl with the wet mixture and mix over low speed for around 10-15 seconds until combined. Then add the remaining dry mixture and mix for another 10-15 seconds until combined with no white streaks of flour remaining. Scrape down the sides as needed.
    Add in the chocolate chips and chocolate chunks and mix for a few seconds on low speed until well incorporated.
    Then remove the bowl from the stand and cover with foil or clink wrap.
    Chill in the fridge for a minimum of 1 hour (ideally 3-4) and up to over night.
  • When you are ready to bake the cookies preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
    Using a cookie scoop, measure out about 2 tablespoon of dough and place on a parchment paper lined baking sheet about 2 inches apart.
    Bake the cookies at 350 degree for 9-11 minutes then remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle the tops of the cookies with a little flaky sea salt.
    Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 10 minutes before transferring the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Serve and enjoy!
