These thick, gooey, Levain-inspired two-chip chocolate chip cookies are loaded with semisweet and dark chocolate chips, baked at high heat for a crisp edge and molten center.
1 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
¾ cup light brown sugar, packed
½ cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 tbsp vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup cake flour
1 tbsp cornstarch
1 tsp baking powder
½ tsp baking soda
¾ tsp salt
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup dark chocolate chips
Cream cold butter and sugars for 3–4 minutes until light and fluffy.
Add eggs and vanilla, mixing just until combined.
Whisk flours, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually mix into wet ingredients.
Fold in both chocolate chips by hand.
Scoop large 6 oz dough balls. Chill for 1–2 hours minimum.
Preheat oven to 400°F (205°C). Line pans with parchment.
Bake for 9–11 minutes until golden on edges and soft in the middle.
Cool on the pan for 10 minutes before moving to a wire rack.
Freeze dough balls for up to 2 months.
For a nutty version, add ¾ cup chopped walnuts.
Let cookies cool fully for best texture.
