FLOURLESS PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES
Claire Robinson's cookies only use a few ingredients but the last one, sea salt, is key as it gives them their addictive salty finish. Since the cookies are flourless, they're very tender, so let them cool awhile on the pan before moving them.

- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
