Secret-Ingredient Chocolate Chunk Cookies - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    3/4 cup unsalted butter (softened)
    1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
    1/4 cup white sugar
    1 large egg (take 30 minutes to bring it to room temperature first)
    2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
    2 cups all-purpose flour
    2 teaspoons cornstarch
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    8 ounces bittersweet chocolate, cut into small chunks
Preparation
    In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter and sugars until smooth (I do this by hand, with a wooden spoon).
    Stir in vanilla and then blend in egg.
    Add the flour, cornstarch, baking soda and salt (I sift these four ingredients through a sieve first) and combine; stir in chocolate chunks and stir to incorporate chunks throughout the dough.
    Chill dough in fridge for one hour, two if you can spare the time.
    Preheat oven to 350\u00b0F; line your cookie sheets with parchment paper.
    Drop dough by tablespoons onto cookie sheets and bake in preheated oven for about 8-10 minutes, or until cookies are golden brown around the edges.
    Remove cookies to wire racks and let cool.
