Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup unsalted butter (melted, for dairy-free, use Smart Balance Butter)
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups light buckwheat flour
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ¼ tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¾ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Method
 

  1. In a large bowl, mix ½ cup melted butter, ½ cup granulated sugar, and ⅓ cup packed brown sugar until combined.
  2. Add 1 large egg and 2 tsp vanilla extract to the butter mixture and mix until well combined.
  3. Add 1½ cups light buckwheat flour, ½ tsp baking soda, ¼ tsp baking powder, and ½ tsp salt, and mix until just combined.
  4. Fold in ¾ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate dough for 60 minutes.
  5. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  6. Scoop dough into 12 portions and roll into balls. Place on prepared baking sheets 2 inches apart.
  7. Bake for 10–12 minutes, until edges are set, but centers still look slightly underdone. Cool on a baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

- Ensure your butter is fully melted for the best dough consistency.
- Do not overmix the buckwheat flour; this can lead to tough cookies.
- Chilling the dough is crucial for preventing excessive spreading and developing flavor.
- Bake until the edges are set but the center is still slightly soft for optimal chewiness.
