Double Dark Chocolate Chunk Cookies With Sea Salt

These Double Dark Chocolate Chunk Cookies are a twist on my favorite chocolate chip recipe only made with loads of rich dark chocolate plus the addition of cocoa powder and topped with fleur de sel (sea salt).

They are chewy, filled with chocolate chunks in every.single.bite (a requirement for my cookies) and have a touch of sea salt sprinkled on top just to add some depth.

I mean, come on. Look at that chocolate! It’s seriously so decadent. And this recipe makes quite a few so I like to bake half and then freeze the rest (I just scoop the cookies out onto a parchment-lined baking sheet then freeze and transfer to a Ziploc when frozen. So easy).

These are the perfect cookie to share with a friend or neighbor and they are always a hit. 

Let me know if you try them! I know I’m making another batch today because they are seriously so addicting.
