Chocolate Chip Cookies With Sea Salt
Ingredients
- ⅓ cup granulated sugar
- ¾ cup brown sugar
- ½ cup unsalted butter, at room temperature (1 stick of butter)
- 1 egg, at room temperature
- 1½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1¼ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon sea salt, divided
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat together the granulate sugar, brown sugar, and butter together for 1 minute. Add in the egg and vanilla extract and beat for 30 more seconds. Add in the flour, baking soda, and ½ teaspoon of salt. Beat until well combined. Fold in chocolate chips.
- Using an ice cream scoop or your hands, form 12 balls of dough, each the size of an egg, and place on prepared baking sheet. Place about 1½ to 2 inches apart from each other. Place into oven and bake for 14-15 minutes until the edges are just barely set.
- Remove from oven, sprinkle with remaining sea salt, and cool on a wire rack.
Notes
Store them for 5 days at room temperature in an air tight container, once they’ve completely cooled down.
