Sea Salt Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipes

SALTED CHOCOLATE COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper and spray with cooking spray.
• Combine flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon sea salt in a bowl.
• Place butter in a saucepan over low heat and cook until melted, 3 to 5 minutes. Add chocolate chips and stir until completely melted. Remove from the heat.
• Combine brown sugar, white sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract in a bowl and beat with an electric mixer until creamy. Pour a small amount of the chocolate mixture into the egg mixture and stir until well combined. Slowly add remaining chocolate mixture, stirring constantly so the eggs don't curdle. Fold in the flour mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
• Drop 6 large scoops of batter about 2 inches apart onto each of the prepared baking sheets.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cookies have spread and flattened to a diameter of 4 1/2 inches or larger, and the tops are crinkled and puffed, 12 to 14 minutes. Immediately sprinkle with sea salt.
• Place baking sheets on a wire rack and cool for 18 to 20 minutes. Remove cookies with a spatula onto serving platter.

BUCKWHEAT CHOCOLATE-CHIP COOKIES WITH SEA SALT

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together both flours, baking soda, and kosher salt. In the bowl of a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter with both sugars on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Add egg, then vanilla; beat to combine. Reduce speed to low; add flour mixture and beat until just combined. Fold in chocolate. Cover with plastic wrap; refrigerate at least 8 hours and up to 2 days.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Remove dough from refrigerator and form into 1 1/2-inch balls (each about 2 heaping tablespoons). Place on parchment-lined baking sheets, 2 inches apart. Sprinkle a few grains of flaky salt on top of each ball. Bake, rotating pans once and banging firmly against a hard surface every few minutes, until cookies are just set and lightly golden around edges, 15 to 17 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely.
