Decoration Tips:

For a polished look, sprinkle the sea salt flakes evenly over the top of each cookie before baking. If you want to add a bit of extra flair, you can drizzle melted chocolate over the cooled cookies or dust them lightly with powdered sugar. Arrange the cookies on a beautiful plate or in a decorative box if giving them as a gift.

Ingredients:

  • 220g dark chocolate, chopped
  • 60g butter
  • 80g brown sugar (light or dark)
  • 80g white sugar
  • 100g all-purpose flour (type 0000)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Sea salt flakes for topping

Instructions:

  1. Melt the Chocolate and Butter:
    • In a heatproof bowl, combine the chopped chocolate and butter. Melt together over a double boiler (bain-marie) or in the microwave, stirring occasionally until smooth. Let it cool slightly.
  2. Prepare the Batter:
    • Preheat your oven to 170°C (340°F).
    • In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with the brown and white sugars until the mixture is frothy and has doubled in volume.
    • Gradually add the melted chocolate and butter mixture to the egg mixture, stirring well to combine.
    • Mix in the vanilla extract.
  3. Incorporate Dry Ingredients:
    • Sift together the flour and baking powder. Fold the dry ingredients into the chocolate mixture using a spatula, mixing until just combined.
  4. Shape the Cookies:
    • Line baking trays with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
    • Transfer the cookie batter into a piping bag with a plain round tip (or simply cut the tip of the bag). Pipe the mixture onto the prepared baking trays, spacing them apart to allow for spreading.
    • Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt flakes on top of each cookie.
  5. Bake:
    • Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 12-13 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still soft.
    • Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking tray for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Enjoy!
