TINY, SALTY, CHOCOLATY COOKIES



Tiny, Salty, Chocolaty Cookies image

You do not have to be a chocolate person to love this perfect, unfussy, snacky dessert, which is like the edge of a chewy brownie but in cookie form. Adapted from "Nothing Fancy" by Alison Roman (Clarkson Potter, 2019), these cookies require no special equipment, fancy techniques or chilling time, which means that even if you bake only once a year, you can still make these. Lightly sweet and definitely salty, it's ideal for the end of a meal.

Time 20m

Yield 24 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 tablespoons unsalted butter (3/4 stick)
2 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (it's worth investing in high-quality cocoa powder, since that's mostly what you'll be tasting here)
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 large egg whites
1 large egg
8 ounces bittersweet chocolate (at least 67 percent cacao), chopped
1/2 cup finely chopped hazelnuts, almonds, pistachios, pecans or walnuts (optional)
Flaky sea salt, such as Maldon or Jacobsen

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Melt the butter in a small pot over medium heat, swirling, until it's starting to foam and brown, 3 to 4 minutes. (Whisk the butter from time to time so that the solids don't stick to the bottom of the pot.) Let cool.
  • Whisk the confectioners' sugar, cocoa powder and salt in a medium bowl, ridding it of as many lumps as possible. (If you really want to, feel free to sift everything.)
  • Using a spatula, mix in the egg whites, whole egg and browned butter, stirring until you've got a good, smoothish mixture (any small lumps will take care of themselves), followed by the chocolate and any nuts you may want to add.
  • Using a spoon, drop quarter-size blobs of dough (the texture is really somewhere between a dough and a batter) onto the baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart (they spread a lot). Sprinkle with flaky salt and bake until the cookies have flattened considerably and look baked through and a little wrinkled, 6 to 8 minutes. Let cool before eating so they can firm up.

2/3 cup packed light brown sugar
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cups semisweet chocolate chips (7 1/2 oz)

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start baking, gather all your ingredients and equipment. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling.
  • Chill Your Dough: Chilling the dough is a secret ingredient for chewier cookies. It helps the dough set and prevents it from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Use Quality Ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the final product. Use the best chocolate and butter you can find.
  • Don't Overmix: Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the Cookies at the Right Temperature: The ideal temperature for baking these cookies is 350°F (175°C). This will help them bake evenly without burning.
  • Let the Cookies Cool: Once the cookies are baked, let them cool on a wire rack before enjoying them. This will help them set and prevent them from falling apart.
