Method
 

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 350. Add butter and sugars to the bowl of a stand mixer. Mix on high until combined, light, and fluffy.

  2. Step 2: Add vanilla and eggs and mix until just combined.

  3. Step 3: In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and salt.

  4. Step 4: Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients a little at a time, mixing in between.

  5. Step 5: Set aside some chocolate chunks to press into the top. Add the rest to the dough and fold in.

  6. Step 6: Place baking cups on a baking sheet. You should be able to fit about 8 cups to one baking sheet – you want there to be plenty of space between each one. Fill each cup with three heaping scoops of dough.
    Scoops of chocolate chip cookie dough are placed in brown paper baking cups on a metallic surface. Additional baking cups with cookie dough are slightly visible in the background.
  7. Step 7: Press the dough down into the bottom of the cup. Press a few chocolate chunks into the top of each cup of dough.

  8. Step 8: Bake for 22-24 minutes. Do not over-bake. You want the edges to be golden-brown but the middle to still be a little gooey. Serve warm.
