Salted Brownie Cookies

Ingredients

• 6 oz (160 grams) dark chocolate ( 60-70 % cocoa), chopped
• 1/3 cup ( 80 grams) unsalted butter
• 1/2 cup ( 100 grams) brown sugar
• 1/3 cup ( 67 grams) granulated sugar
• 2 large eggs, at room temperature
• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• Flaky sea salt, for sprinkling

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350 F (180 C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

2. In a medium bowl combine the flour, cocoa powder, salt and baking powder. Set aside.
3. In a heatproof bowl over a small pan of simmering water, melt together the chocolate and butter. Once melted, remove from the heat.
4. Using a hand mixer with the whisk attachment, whisk both sugars and the eggs on medium-high speed for 6-7 minutes or until tripled in volume.
5. Gently fold the chocolate mixture into the egg mixture until just incorporated.
6. Fold in the flour mixture using a spatula until just incorporated and no flour clumps remain. The batter will be very sticky.
7. Use a large (3 tablespoon) cookie scoop to transfer the batter to the lined baking sheets. Space them at least 1 inch apart as they will spread during baking.
8. Bake the cookies for 10 minutes.
9. Cool the cookies on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Sprinkle with flaky salt.

10. Enjoy!
