I've never been a huge fan of chocolate chip cookies. I mean, I like them and I'll eat them, no need to twist my arm there. But love them, crave them, absolutely have to have them? I've never quite been there.Until, that is, I discovered Baking Bites' Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies. No matter what I do they bake up into perfectly round, couldn't have shaped them better if I tried, discs of wonderfulness. The ratio of brown sugar is just enough to pull through a delightful caramel flavor. And, to take these lovelies just one step further...sprinkling a pinch of sea salt on top pre-baking, just enough to create a salty-sweet combo that can't be beat.
Chewy, salty, sweety, chocolatey...perfect. I've discovered a new love, and a recipe that can support me with as many varieties as I want to throw at it...white chocolate chips? Dried cranberries? Walnuts? The opportunities are endless, the calories are inevitable!

That's interesting about the salt. I just made the NY Times chocolate chip cookies and those called for sea salt sprinkled on top too. It must be a new trend in cookies..the sweet and salty thing.
I love the salty-chocolate combination (like chocolate dipped pretzels!)
Yum!
