For The Cookies

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup butter, melted and cooled
  • 11/2 cups firmly packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 31/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 (11.5-ounce) bag semisweet chocolate chunks
  • 1 cup miniature bittersweet chocolate morsels

For The Buttercream Frosting

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups butter, softened
  • 8 cups confectioners’ sugar
  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream

Directions:

  1. In a large bowl, beat melted butter and sugars with a mixer at medium speed until fluffy. Add eggs and egg yolks, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine flour and next 3 ingredients. Gradually add to butter mixture, beating until combined. Beat in chocolate chunks and morsels. Cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or up to 3 days.
  3. Preheat oven to 350°. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  4. Using a 1/2-cup spring-loaded scoop, drop dough 2 inches apart onto prepared pans. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or just until edges of cookies are browned and tops are starting to brown. Let cool on pans for 2 minutes.
  5. Remove from pans, and let cool completely on wire racks. Spread desired amount of Buttercream onto one flat side of half of cookies. Cover with flat side of remaining cookies to make a sandwich. Store cookies in airtight containers for up to 3 days, or freeze in resealable plastic bags for up to 1 month.
  6. In a large bowl, beat butter with a mixer at medium speed until creamy. Gradually add confectioners’ sugar, beating until combined. Add cream, beating until smooth.
