Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (225 g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup (150 g) granulated sugar
  • 1 cup (220 g) light brown sugar, packed
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 3 cups (375 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups (340 g) semi-sweet or dark chocolate chunks
  • Optional: 1/2 cup (60 g) chopped walnuts or pecans

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together 1 cup softened unsalted butter, 3/4 cup granulated sugar, and 1 cup packed light brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Add 2 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed or folding with a spatula just until combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Fold in 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chunks and, if using, 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans.
  7. Line a 12-inch pizza pan with parchment paper. Transfer the dough to the pan and press it evenly with your hands or a spatula to fill the entire pan.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes until edges are golden brown and the center is set but still soft. For gooier texture, bake closer to 20 minutes; for firmer, bake longer.
  9. Let the cookie pizza cool on the pan for at least 15 minutes to firm up.
  10. Slice into wedges with a sharp knife or pizza cutter and serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

Do not overmix the dough after adding flour to keep cookies chewy. Use softened butter, not melted. Check oven a few minutes before minimum bake time to avoid overbaking. Let cookie cool fully before slicing to prevent crumbling. For chewier texture and deeper flavor, chill dough for 30 minutes before baking. Chocolate chunks create gooier pockets than chips. Variations include nut-free, peanut butter swirl, gluten-free, vegan, and seasonal fruit additions.
