Combine butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Whisk until combined.
⅕ 1 unsalted butter⅕ ½ brown sugar⅕ ½ granulated sugar⅕ ½ sea saltAdd vanilla and egg. Whisk until thickened and lightened in color.
⅕ 1 pure vanilla extract⅕ 1 large eggSift flour and baking soda right into the same bowl. Reserve a few tablespoons of milk chocolate hearts and chocolate chips, and add the rest into the bowl. Fold with a spatula just until you stop seeing dry streaks of flour.
⅕ 2 all purpose flour⅕ ½ baking soda⅕ ½ milk chocolate chips⅕ ½ mini semisweet chocolate chipsScoop the dough into 14 large balls onto a parchment lined baking sheet. Shape each ball into a flat heart with your fingers. Exaggerate each heart making them long and narrow - they will spread in the oven. Press reserved chocolate chips onto the tops of the cookies.
Chill the shaped hearts in the fridge for 1 hour or in the freezer for 25 minutes. You can chill them for longer in the fridge (up to 48 hours).
Preheat oven to 355°F (180°C). Arrange heart shaped cookies on parchment lined baking sheet with plenty of space between each cookie. They will spread! Bake for 7-9 minutes or just until the edges become slightly golden. The middle will still be a touch underbaked - they will continue to bake as they cool.
Let the cookies cool on the baking pan for a minute before transferring onto a cooling rack. The cookies taste best slightly warm. You can gently reheat any leftovers!
