Notes

Substitutions:

If you don’t have a chocolate baking bar, you can use chocolate chips.
If you don't have unsalted butter, you can use salted. Just make sure you omit the salt in the recipe.

Expert Tips:

When mixing the melted butter and sugars together, make sure the mixture isn’t too hot before adding the eggs! You may need to let it cool slightly, about 1-2 minutes, before adding the eggs.
Make sure the egg is completely incorporated before adding the flour.
It’s best to use light-colored sheet pans to bake these cookies, as a darker sheet pan may cause the bottoms to burn.
Tap the sheet pans on the counter as the cookies come out of the oven. This helps ensure beautiful crinkly cookies!
