INGREDIENTS

  • 1/2 cup GAEA Authentic Greek Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 3/4 tsp baking soda
  • 2 cups (250 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 3/4 cup (170 g) brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup (50 g) granulated sugar
  • 1 egg

      METHOD

      • Preheat the oven to 325° F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
      • In a medium bowl, stir together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
      • In a large bowl, combine the brown sugar and sugar. While whisking continually, stream in the olive oil and whisk until smooth and emulsified.
      • Whisk in the egg and egg yolk, followed by the vanilla extract.
      • Add the dry ingredients and stir using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon until no dry spots remain.
      • Stir in the chocolate chunks and then scoop cookie dough into balls using a 2-tsp sized cookie scoop.
