Rob's favorite treat of all time is chocolate chip cookies. He would trade it all for a big ol' pile of homemade chocolate chip cookies. Normally he only gets them on his birthday or super special occasions. Well...this past Friday I took a much needed day off and got the baking bug. Instead of creating something he'd nibble at, say is good, and not eat after the first day, I caved and made a big batch of chocolate chip cookies. I have to admit, they aren't just for him though. They really are amazing, especially served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. I found this recipe on Eat, Live, Run a few years back and it has been my go to cookie recipe ever since. With a hint of sea salt, you get just the right amount of savory and sweet. Here's the recipe.
:: Ingredients ::
2 1/2 Cups All Purpose Flour
1 Teaspoon Baking Soda
1 Teaspoon Sea Salt
1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
2 Cups Packed Dark Brown Sugar
2 Eggs
2 Sticks Butter, softened
1 Bag Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
:: Directions ::
1. Whisk together flour, baking soda, and sea salt. Set aside.
2. Cream together butter and sugar. Add eggs one at a time mixing after each egg. Add the vanilla and mix gently to combine.
3. Add flour to the butter mixture. Carefully stir in the chocolate chips.
4. Spoon onto a greased baking sheet and bake at 350 for 12 minutes or until golden brown.
