Ingredients

2
sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter
1 cup
packed dark brown sugar
1/2 cup
granulated sugar
2
large eggs
3 Tbsp.
soy sauce
2 tsp.
pure vanilla extract
2 1/4 cups
all-purpose flour
1 tsp.
baking soda
1/2 tsp.
kosher salt
1 cup
semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup
chopped dark chocolate
Flaky sea salt, for topping

Directions

1. Step 1 In a small sauce pan over medium heat, melt butter. Transfer melted butter to a large bowl and combine with sugars. Using a whisk or hand mixer, mix butter and sugars until combined. Beat eggs in one at a time, then add soy sauce and vanilla and beat until incorporated.
2. Step 2In a separate medium bowl, whisk to combine flour, baking soda, and salt. Add dry ingredients to the bowl with the wet ingredients and beat to combine. Fold in chocolate chips and chopped chocolate, then cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate 20 minutes.
3. Step 3Meanwhile, preheat oven to 375º and line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper. When dough is chilled, use a medium cookie scoop to scoop dough onto prepared tray about 2" apart. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt and bake until cookies are golden on the edges and do not appear wet in the centers, 7 to 9 minutes.
