Mango Dark Chocolate Chunk Cookies
These Mango Dark Chocolate Chunk Cookies are an unexpectedly delicious combination of dried, tart mango, melty puddles of chopped dark chocolate, and flaky sea salt. No dough chilling required, and no mixer required either! They are the perfect switch-up from a typical chocolate chip cookie, and you won't be able to get over how incredible the combo is!
Ingredients
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 12 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 1 cup light brown sugar, loosely packed
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg + 1 egg yolk
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 5 ounces dark chocolate, chopped
- 3/4 cup chopped dried mango*
- flaky sea salt for sprinkling
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 375℉. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until combined. Set aside.
-
Add the melted butter to a large mixing bowl. Add the brown sugar and granulated sugar and whisk to combine. Add the vanilla, egg, and egg yolk and whisk again until smooth. Add the dry ingredients and stir until combined. Fold in the chopped dark chocolate and dried mango (the dough will be thick!).
-
Spoon dough onto baking sheet in about 2 tablespoon sized balls. Sprinkle with a little bit of flaky sea salt. Bake for 10-12 minutes until lightly golden on the edges. They will look slightly underbaked, and this is good! Don't overbake them. Sprinkle immediately with more flaky sea salt while they're hot!
-
Let cool for a couple minutes on the cookie sheet, then transfer to a wire rack to cool the rest of the way.
Recipe Notes
*I buy the dried, unsweetened, unsulfured mango pieces that you can find from Trader Joe's or Whole Foods! Regular grocery stores and places like Target should have them too. Just make sure you don't get already sweetened pieces of mango. You want the natural stuff!
