Categories     dessert

Time 55m

Yield about 36 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon fine salt
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 sticks butter, softened
2 large eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
3/4 cups semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup caramel bits or caramel candies, chopped
1 1/2 teaspoons flaky sea salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F; position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda and fine salt together in a bowl.
  • With an electric mixer, beat the brown sugar, granulated sugar and butter together in a large bowl until light and fluffy, 3 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the vanilla extract and beat to combine. Add the flour mixture and beat until just incorporated. Stir in the chocolate chips and caramel bits.
  • Scoop heaping tablespoons of the dough onto the baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between the cookies (you will have cookie dough left over). Sprinkle each cookie with a pinch of sea salt.
  • Bake the cookies until golden brown, rotating the position of the baking sheets halfway through, 13 minutes. Transfer the cookies to a rack to cool. Meanwhile, cool the baking sheets and repeat with the remaining cookie dough.

I made these cookies for my son's class at school as part of France's annual week of taste, or semaine du gout. The idea was to show how sweet and salty flavors complement each other.

Yield Makes about 50 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
About 2 1/2 teaspoons sea salt, divided
10 ounces unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup vanilla sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
12 ounces bitter chocolate chips, or bitter chocolate cut in very small pieces

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375°. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Sift together onto a piece of waxed paper the flour, the soda, and one half teaspoon of the salt.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the butter and the sugar until it is light and pale yellow. Whisk in the eggs one at a time until thoroughly blended. Whisk in the vanilla, then stir in the flour just until it is blended.
  • Stir in the chocolate chips or pieces and mix until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  • Drop the dough by tablespoons full onto the prepared baking sheets. Sprinkle each with a generous pinch of sea salt. Bake in the center of the oven until the cookies are golden, about 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and let sit on the baking sheets for about 4 minutes to allow the cookies, which are fragile, to firm up, then slide them onto a cooling rack.

SALTED CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

I know, another chocolate chip cookie recipe. These are really wonderful though. They are not too sweet and the salt complements the chocolate beautifully. It is important that the flours and granulated sugar be mesured by weight. I use Murray River Australian Flake Salt for sprinkling on top of the cookies.
