Best Almond Joy Cookies Ever!

Ingredients
  • 1¾ cups (8¾ ounces) unbleached all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 14 tablespoons (1¾ sticks) unsalted butter
  • ½ cup (3½ ounces) granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup (5¼ ounces) packed dark brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon table salt
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 1¼ cups semisweet chocolate chips or chunks
  • ¾ Almond Joy Candies
  • Instructions
  1. Adjust oven rack to middle position and turn the heat to 375F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper, set aside.
  2. Whisk the dry ingredients together:
  3. Whisk flour & baking soda together in a bowl, set aside
  4. Melt the Butter
  5. Heat 10 tablespoons butter in a skillet over medium heat until melted and then for another 1-2 minutes until the butter turns dark golden color. Transfer browned butter to a large heat proof bowl & stir in remaining 4 tablespoons butter until completely melted.
  6. Add Sugars & Eggs
  7. Add both sugars, salt & vanilla to the melted butter and stir/whisk until fully incorporated. While continuing to whisk, add egg & yolk, continuing to whisk until the mixture is smooth. Let it sit for 3-5 minutes. Stir for 30 seconds. Repeat the process of resting and stirring 2 more times until the mixture has thickened & is smooth and shiny.
  8. Add Flour & Chocolate chips.
  9. Add flour to the butter mixture and using wooden spoon stir until just combined, about 1 minute. Add chocolate chips & stir again to make sure chocolate chips are evenly distributed.
  10. Shape the cookies
  11. Using a 1 tablespoon sized ice cream scoop (2- 2.5 inches cookies), or a 3 tablespoon sized ice cream scoop (for larger & thicker cookies), divide the dough & arrange on the baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Stick about 4 (for smaller sized cookies) or 7-8 (for larger cookies) Almond Joy candies on top of each cookie ball.
  12. Bake
  13. Bake cookies for 6-8 minutes for smaller cookies or 10-14 minutes for larger cookies, until cookies are slightly golden & puffy. The centers are supposed to still be soft, but the edges will have begun to set. Transfer cookies to a wire rack & allow to cool before serving.
  14. To Freeze
  15. Shape the cookie dough and set it on a baking sheet. Adorn with almond joy candies. Freeze for 3-4 hours. Transfer to a ziplock bag & store for up to 1 month. TO bake: set frozen cookie balls on a parchment paper lined baking sheet, 2 inches apart and bake in a preheated to 375F oven. Add 3-4 minutes to the regular baking time.
