Ingredients
- 2 sticks unsalted butter, cut into cubes Add to list
- 1/4 cup white sugar Add to list
- 1/2 cup demerara sugar Add to list
- 1 3/4 cups packed dark brown sugar Add to list
- 2 large eggs Add to list
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract Add to list
- 1 teaspoon baking soda Add to list
- 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt Add to list
- 1 teaspoon good-quality cinnamon (I use Saigon cinnamon) Add to list
- 2 cups all-purpose flour Add to list
- 1 cup whole grain emmer flour Add to list
- 12 ounces bittersweet chocolate, coarsely chopped Add to list
- 2 tablespoons cocoa nibs Add to list
Preparation
Preheat oven to 350º F.
Cream the butter with the sugars in a mixer until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs, vanilla, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and mix for 30 seconds on low speed. Gradually add in the flours and then stir in the chocolate and cocoa nibs.
Scoop out dough in heaping tablespoons on parchment paper-lined cookie sheets. Do not flatten them. Sprinkle with a bit of extra demerara and crunchy sea salt, if you like, before they go into the oven. Cook for exactly 12 minutes. They may appear underdone or too soft, but they will set up once they cool down.
