Instructions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350F (180C). Butter a round 6-inch baking pan with and set aside.
Step 2
Beat butter until it’s fluffy or turns an off-white color (about 3 minutes).

Add in the brown sugar and granulated sugar and mix until fluffy (about 2 minutes).

Add the egg yolk and vanilla extract and mix until a smooth consistency.
Step 5
Add the flour, baking soda and salt. Mix until a soft dough forms. Then add the chocolate chips. Mix until combined.

Press the dough, into an even layer, into the pan. Bake for 15 minutes, or until the edges are slightly golden brown and the centre has puffed up but is still gooey.
