This recipe yields just four cookies, making it the perfect little indulgence for after dinner.
2 tbsp butter, at room temperature
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 egg yolk
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 tsp flaky sea salt
PREHEAT oven to 350F. Line a baking pan with parchment.
STIR butter with brown sugar in a medium bowl until creamy. Stir in egg yolk and vanilla until combined. Stir in flour and baking soda until just combined. Stir in chocolate chips.
DIVIDE batter into 4 portions. Scoop each portion onto prepared sheet, 3-in. apart. Cookies will spread as they bake. Sprinkle with sea salt if desired.
BAKE in centre of oven until cookies are golden around the edges, about 10 min. Transfer sheet to a rack to cool just slightly, about 2 min.
Flaky sea salt is used at the end of cooking to preserve texture and appearance. Here it adds a salty note and a fun crunch to make these cookies even more delicious.
