Best Chocolate Chunk Cookies
I love these outrageous cookies! Best Chocolate Chunk Cookies are the perfect blend of chocolate and vanilla. I start with my favorite copycat recipe of Mrs. Field’s Chocolate Chip Cookies. I use only real vanilla extract–no substitutes. The flour is increased so the cookies don’t flop after baking. I’ve also lengthened the baking time so the cookies don’t end up doughy on the inside! Then I’ve swapped out chocolate chunks for the chips. Chocolate chunks are about twice the size of chocolate chips so there’s even MORE delicious chocolate in every bite. Yes, yes, yes!

By now you know I bake a LOT of cookies! John gives them out frequently, but I made these for a different occasion. Back in July our church had a Kid’s Fest (carnival) in a local park. We provided all kinds of amusements and games for kids along with free food. I coordinated cookie collection. I drafted recruited several volunteers to help me bake thousands of homemade cookies. I made about 12 different kinds of cookies including M&M, Sea Salt Caramel and Hershey’s Nugget Cookies. Everyone loved sampling our home-baked cookies, and these Best Chocolate Chunk Cookies were very well received.
Almost anything with chocolate goes like wildfire and these cookies were no exception. If you’re looking for a no-fail delicious chocolate cookie then put these delicious jewels on your priority baking list. They’re perfect for summer parties and holidays, but they’re also great for tailgating and holiday baking and parties, too. I guarantee you won’t come home with many leftovers after serving these amazing cookies!
Best Chocolate Chunk Cookies are outrageous fun!
These cookies are great for tailgating parties or other holiday parties.
These cookies are a chocolate lover’s delight!
Here’s what I did.
I used these ingredients. For the best outcome, use real vanilla and not imitation.
Soften butter. Add eggs, sugar, brown sugar, vanilla, sea salt, baking powder and baking soda.
Cream with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
Add UNBLEACHED all-purpose flour. Bleached flour toughens baked goods. Add chocolate chunks.
Stir ingredients until thoroughly mixed.
Roll dough into balls and place on greased cookie sheets.
Bake at 350 for 13-15 minutes, or until done.
You’ll be drooling after the first bite of these cookies.
Best Chocolate Chunk Cookies are really the best!
If you enjoy chocolate chip cookies, you may find yourself gorging over these treats.

Hi, Tisa. They are certainly drool-worthy cookies. You may find yourself drooling when you smell the fragrance of the cookies baking. I sure did. 🙂 Have a great week.
