Course Dessert
Prep Time 10 minutes
Servings 1 giant cookie

Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup butter softened
  • 1/3 cup shortening
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 2 cups chocolate chips
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • coarse salt for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375.

  2. In a stand mixer, beat butter and shortening together until combined (about a minute). Add sugars and beat another minute or two. Add vanilla and egg. Beat again.

  3. Mix in the chocolate chips.

  4. Add the flour, soda, and salt. Mix JUST until combined. It will look over-floured for a few seconds, but should come together pretty quickly.

  5. Press the cookie dough evenly into the pizza pan and then sprinkle kosher or sea salt on top. Bake for 12-15 minutes, until the edges are lightly browned. Let cool before carefully removing from pan and wrapping.
