Step-by-Step Instructions for Giant Pan-Banging Chocolate Chip Cookies
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with aluminum foil, dull side up.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a stand mixer, cream together butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until fluffy, about 1-2 minutes.
  4. Add in the egg, vanilla extract, and water, mixing until combined.
  5. Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined, then fold in chopped chocolate.
  6. Form dough into 3.5 oz balls and place on parchment-lined baking sheets, then freeze for 15 minutes.
  7. Bake cookies for 10 minutes, drop the baking sheet from 6 inches height, then bake an additional 6-8 minutes until edges are golden.
  8. Let cookies cool on baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
