Chocolate Chip Chunk Cookies
1 cup butter, softened (room temperature: soft but not melted)
1cup white sugar
1cup dark brown sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
Beat well and add dry ingredients already mixed:
3 cups flour
1 Tbp baking powder
1 tsp salt
Mix well and add:
1c milk chocolate morsels
1 1/2 cup chocolate chunks
Cream together the butter and both sugars in a hand mixer or stand mixer, for 2-4 minutes on medium. It should be light and fluffy. This helps the sugar melt into the butter and adds air.

Then add the 2 eggs, and vanilla. Mix until combined and smooth.
In a separate bowl, combine the dry ingredients into a sifter and sift into the bowl to mix.
Add half of this at a time to the wet ingredients and mix until you can't see any more flour and the mixture looks consistent (no dry/crumbly spots). Once it looks consistent, stop mixing. Otherwise they'll turn out flatter/crisper.
Then stir in chocolate chips and chunks.
Refrigerate dough until chilled. If necessary, you might need to cook up 6 right away just to keep the vultures at bay. Then cook as needed at 375 for about 9 minutes, depending on how big you make them. Don't use a darkened pan. No need to grease pan. Cook just until the cookies look dry and let cool on pan for a few minutes before removing to rack or plate. Step back for safety from voracious hordes.
