For an even richer flavor, use dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet. If the cookie dough is too soft to handle, chill it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before scooping. Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature to maintain their soft texture. Adjust the amount of sea salt to your preference. A higher quality flaky sea salt will offer the best flavor and texture.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper and lightly coat with nonstick spray. (5 minutes)
02
StepIn a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of sea salt. Set aside. (3 minutes)
03
StepIn a saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in the semi-sweet chocolate chips until completely smooth and glossy. (5-7 minutes)
04
StepIn a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat together the brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until light and creamy. (3-5 minutes)
05
StepGradually pour in a small amount of the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture, stirring well to combine. Continue adding the remaining chocolate mixture slowly, mixing constantly to prevent the eggs from curdling. (3 minutes)
06
StepGently fold in the dry flour mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter to keep the cookies tender. (2 minutes)
07
StepUsing a large cookie scoop or spoon, drop generous mounds of batter about 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets. (5 minutes)
08
StepBake in the preheated oven until the cookies have spread, flattened, and the tops are crinkled and slightly puffed, approximately 12 to 14 minutes.
09
StepRemove from the oven and immediately sprinkle the cookies with flaky sea salt. Transfer the baking sheets to a wire rack to cool for at least 18 to 20 minutes before serving. (20 minutes)
10
StepCarefully use a spatula to transfer the cookies to a serving platter. Enjoy the sublime combination of chocolate and sea salt!
