About

Everyone's always talking about a chewy, gooey chocolate chip cookie. And sure, we love those, too. But have you ever tried Crispy Chocolate Chip Cookies?! We think they're the most slept-on version of this chocolatey classic there is! The name says it all! These sweet discs are satisfyingly crispy, and sprinkled with just a touch of sea salt for that ultimate sweet-and-salty combination. They're oh-so-good on their own, but we also think they'd be quite delightful sprinkled over a bowl of vanilla ice cream. Don't you?! Crispy Chocolate Chip Cookies are the best new way to think about your favorite classic cookie!

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour, leveled
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 1/2 ounces 85% cocoa dark chocolate bar, chopped
  • flaky sea salt, to taste

Directions

Step 1 -Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Step 2 -Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 3 -In a medium bowl, combine the flour, the baking soda, and the kosher salt.

Step 4 -In a large mixing bowl, whisk the butter, the sugar, and the maple syrup together.

Step 5 -Add the milk, the egg yolk, and the vanilla extract to the butter mixture.

Step 6 -Using a rubber spatula, fold the flour mixture into the butter mixture.

Step 7 -Add the chopped chocolate to the cookie dough and fold to combine.

Step 8 -Using a large, 3-tablespoon cookie scoop, drop three scoops of the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them apart as they spread out quite a bit. You'll only be able to bake about 3 cookies at a time.

Step 10 -Repeat the baking process until all the cookie dough has been used.

Step 11 -Sprinkle the cookies with the flaky sea salt, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 12 -Serve.
