Chocolate Cookie

I'm on a quest to make a good, and really chocolatey, chocolate cookie. My two reasons are that I need to convince my mom to stop buying box mixes, and I need a cookie for ice cream sandwiches. I decided to use the chocolate chip cookie recipe but melt the chips with the butter and see what happens. I will be using a 1/2 recipe just in case I fail.

6 Tablespoons melted butter
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup white sugar
1 teaspoons pure Vanilla extract
1 small egg + 1 small egg yolk
1 cup all purpose white flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
6 oz. of chocolate chips

Melt the butter and chips, add the sugar, vanilla extract, and beat in the eggs. Add the flour, baking soda, and salt, loosely incorporate them before stirring into the batter. Drop by the Tablespoon full onto parchment lined baking sheets. Bake for 10 minutes a sheet, alternating, and possibly adding 2 minutes if baking multiple sheets at a time. Let cool 5 minutes on sheet before transferring to wire racks.

They came out beautifully, I just wish they were more chocolatey, they were a little too chewy for ice cream cookies.
