In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the Butter and Sugars ingredients until golden brown and nutty, then transfer to a bowl to cool slightly.
Whisk the egg and vanilla from the Wet and Dry ingredients into the butter mixture, then stir in the flour, baking soda, and salt until just combined.
Fold in the Add-ins chocolate chunks and scoop 2-tablespoon portions onto a baking sheet.
Bake at 350°F for 10-12 minutes until the edges are golden and the center remains slightly soft.
