Recipe: Triple Chocolate Chip Cookies with Sea Salt

Triple Chocolate Chip Cookies with Sea Salt

My formula for making friends is simple: Bring cookies and Monopoly Deal.

First comes the cookie part. It’s nearly impossible to find anyone who dislikes a good cookie. Cookies equal childhood; they equal cold nights and cozy rooms; they equal tradition and simplicity; and they equal good old fashioned fun.

Over the years, I have a few tricks to make sure I always have cookies on hand. For one, whenever I have a free 30 minutes, I’ll make a big batch of dough and keep it in my fridge, pre-weighed and pre-rolled into balls for quick baking. 

I’ll also throw in whatever I have on hand in the dough, which could be anything from chocolate to nuts to oats to other cookies (like that time I made a cookie out of Oreo crumbs).

The most important part: I’ll always have large tupperware to store cookies in, making them easy to transport for aforementioned friend-making purposes.

Then there’s Monopoly Deal. For those of you who have never played, it’s exactly what it sounds like and then so much better. It’s Monopoly in card-game form, where you strategize using money, properties, and deal cards to build your empire. It’s equal parts millennialism and capitalism, and if you don’t lose all your friends for being ruthless, you’ll certainly gain quite a few from sheer addiction and untamed desire to win.

So there ya have it: My secret formula for making friends, followed by my not-a-secret anymore recipe for the best chocolate chip cookies you can have. Enjoy.

  • Prep Time: 20m
  • Cook Time: 11m
  • Total Time: 35m
  • Yield: 40 cookies

Ingredients

  • 8 1/2 ounces all-purpose flour
  • 8 1/2 ounces bread flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 10 ounces brown sugar
  • 8 ounces granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 1/4 pounds of milk, dark, and white chocolate chips
  • 1 pinch Pinch sea salt

Instructions

  1. Put all dry ingredients except for sea salt in a bowl and set aside.
  2. Using a mixer fitted with paddle attachment, cream butter and sugars together until very light, about 5 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla. Reduce speed to low, add dry ingredients and mix until just combined, 5 to 10 seconds.
  3. Drop chocolate pieces in and incorporate them without breaking them.
  4. Press plastic wrap against dough and refrigerate overnight.
  5. When ready to bake, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a nonstick baking mat. Set aside.
  6. Weigh and scoop dough into 40-gram balls onto baking sheet. Roll them into balls and press down slightly so they become a disc-shape.
  7. Sprinkle lightly with sea salt and bake until the edges are a golden brown but the middle is still an off-white color, 9-11 minutes.
  8. Remove from oven and let it cool in the pan for about a minute. THEN slip the cookies onto a wire rack to cool until you want to eat them.
