In a separate bowl, cream together the melted butter, sugar, and brown sugar until well mixed.

Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

Incorporate the flour mixture into the wet ingredients, being careful not to overmix.

Fold in the chocolate chunks.

Cover and refrigerate the dough for about a couple of hours or overnight.

Take equal portions of dough and place them 2.5 cm apart on a baking sheet.

Bake in a preheated 325°F (165°C) oven for about 11-13 minutes until slightly golden on the edges.

While still warm, add some extra chocolate chunks on top if desired.

Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
