- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the cold butter, dark brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the molasses and egg to the mixture, combining until fully mixed.
- Fold in the flour, baking soda, cornstarch, salt, and spices until a soft dough forms.
- Stir in the chocolate chips or chunks until evenly distributed.
- Roll the dough into balls weighing about 4 to 6 ounces and place them on the baking sheets.

Notes
For best results, use cold butter and measure ingredients carefully. Avoid overbaking for a chewy center. Store cookies in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
