Instructions

Scoop 6 one-tablespoon portions of chocolate sauce onto a parchment-lined plate. Freeze while preparing the cookie dough.
Melt the unsalted butter in a light-colored saucepan over medium heat, stirring continuously for about 7 minutes until golden brown. Pour into a heatproof bowl and cool for 10 minutes.
Whisk the brown sugar and granulated sugar into the brown butter until smooth. Add the egg, yolk, and vanilla, whisking until glossy.
In another bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and sea salt.
Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips.
Divide the dough into 6 portions, flatten each, place a tablespoon of frozen chocolate sauce in the center, and roll into a ball, ensuring the chocolate is enclosed.
Place the dough balls in a greased or parchment-lined round or square pan, ensuring they are close together.
Refrigerate the dough for 10 minutes while preheating the oven to 350°F.
Bake for 14-15 minutes until the edges are golden and the centers are puffy and slightly underdone.
Cool the cookies in the pan for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt.
Serve with scoops of vanilla ice cream, scooping straight from the pan.

Notes

Make sure the chocolate sauce is fully frozen before stuffing into the dough.
Do not overmix the dough for the best texture.
The cookies will continue to set as they cool, so take them out while slightly underbaked.
