These chocolate chunk cookies are somewhere between thick and thin, with crisp slightly crinkly edges and a chewy, gooey center. I use chopped chocolate instead of chocolate chips so it integrates into the cookie more seamlessly and you get nice puddles on top. I also use a little extra salt to balance the sweetness. PLUS with melted butter, there’s no chill time required.
