How to make this recipe
Heat oven to 350oF (175oC) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.ย In a small bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and pinch of salt. Set aside.ย Melt chocolate and unsalted butter in the microwave using 15-20-second intervals. Meanwhile, as the butter/chocolate mixture is heating, combine eggs with sugar and whisk for 20 -30 seconds. There is no need to beat them for too long.ย Slowly pour the chocolate mixture into the egg mixture and combine with the help of a whisk.ย Add dry ingredients, and using a rubber spatula, fold it in until just combined. Avoid over-mixing.ย
Tip from Marina: Before you begin mixing the batter, go ahead and measure all of the ingredients. This recipe moves quickly, so it is important to have everything ready.
Quickly, use a large ice cream scoop or two large spoons to drop the batter in balls onto your prepared baking sheet. Space your cookies at least two inches apart. The batter will spread as the cookies bake. Sprinkle each cookie with a pinch of flaky sea salt.ย Immediately transfer the baking sheet to the oven and bake for 10 -12 min at 350oF (175oC). Remove cookies from the oven and transfer the pan to a wire rack to cool.ย Enjoy warm with a glass of milk!ย
