Ingredients: 

226g softened butter

290g light brown sugar

70g egg yolks (4 yolks)

15g vanilla extract

240g BSM AP Standard Flour

80g BSM Polenta (any variety)

6g baking soda

2g baking powder

7g salt

320g chocolate chips

Flaky sea salt (optional)

In the bowl of a stand-up mixer, combine the softened butter and brown sugar. Using the paddle attachment, cream on medium-high speed for 2 min. Separate your eggs and reserve the whites for another baking project.

Add in the yolks one at a time, followed by the vanilla. Scrape the sides of the bowl to ensure all of the mixture has emulsified. Continue to mix on medium-high speed for 1 min.

In a separate bowl, combine all of the dry ingredients except the chocolate chips and mix together. Add a third of the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed. After each addition, mix on low until you can almost no longer see the dry ingredients. After the last third of the dry ingredients are added, add in the chocolate chips. Scrape the sides of the bowl periodically and continue to mix on low until the dough is evenly incorporated and you no longer see any of the dry ingredients.

Use desired scoop size to scoop the cookies onto a parchment-lined sheet. A standard cookie scoop will yield 24 cookies. Allow the dough to rest for 1 hr in the fridge.  Dough may also be scooped, placed onto a sheet tray, and frozen for later use. Be sure to wrap the cookie dough balls once frozen to prevent freezer burn.

Preheat an oven to 350F.

Space out 10-12 dough balls about 3-inches apart onto a parchment-lined sheet tray. Bake for 16-18 min or until golden around the edges. Place onto a cooling rack to slightly cool before enjoying a delicious warm cookie!
