Chatelaine Triple Tested

This recipe yields just four cookies, making it the perfect little indulgence for after dinner.

Ingredients

  • 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

Instructions

  • 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.

Secret ingredient

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.
