Ingredients
1 cup unsalted butter (room temperature)
2 tablespoons white miso paste
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
6 ounces chopped dark chocolate
1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional)
Flaky salt for topping (optional)
Instructions
1. Cream together the unsalted butter and white miso paste until smooth.
2. Add granulated sugar and brown sugar, and beat until fluffy and light in color.
3. Mix in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk the flour and baking soda.
5. Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet, mixing until just combined.
6. Fold in the chopped dark chocolate gently.
7. Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes.
8. Scoop large dough balls (about 1/4 cup each) and space 3–4 on a baking sheet.
9. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 9–10 minutes, then bang the pan firmly. Repeat banging every 2 minutes until done (total 14–16 mins).
10. Let cookies cool on the tray. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and flaky salt if using.
Notes
Don’t skip chilling the dough—it’s key for the rippled texture.
Use light-colored baking sheets to avoid overly dark bottoms.
For best results, weigh your ingredients rather than relying solely on volume.
