Can you ever have enough recipes for chocolate chip cookies? Absolutely NOT! This is a special cookie recipe on its own but it is even more special with a sprinkle of coarse sea salt on top. Trust me! I love to start these in a super hot oven and immediately lower the temp when the cookies go in. It produces a much thicker cookie which is the look I am always after. Crisp edges and soft centers. Perfection! Try some Salted Chocolate Chip Cookies today!
