Chocolate Chip Cookies

 

This recipe has been a longtime favourite at our house for classic chocolate chip cookies - now enhanced by South Shore Sea Salt!
HOT TIP: Sprinkle a few Sea Salt Crystals on top of each ball of cookie dough just before baking. They add crunchy pockets of salty flavour, that perfectly complement the sweetness of the cookies.
