Chocolate Chip Stuffed Cookies

Ingredients

• 8 oz unsalted butter, softened
• 1 1/2 cup dark brown sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 10 oz chocolate chips plus 1 cup of Chocolate Chips

Instructions

1. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
2. In a large mixer, combine the softened butter and brown sugar with a whisk attachment. Let whisk for 2 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract. Add the flour, baking soda, sea salt and baking powder and slowly combine, making sure not to over-mix the batter. Add 10oz of chocolate chips and combine. Refrigerate batter for 1 hour.
3. Using a 1 inch scoop, scoop 12 cookies onto each parchment lined baking sheet. Using the back of a spoon press down on each of the cookie balls. Add a few chocolate chips into the middle of the cookie dough. Scoop another cookie dough ball on top and press down on the sides so no chocolate chips are showing. Transfer sheets into over and bake for 10-12 minutes until the cookies just slightly turn a golden brown color on the edges but are still soft and chewy in the middle. Remove from oven, transfer to cooling rack. Repeat process for remaining dough.
