Ingredients
- 115 grams unsalted butter
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 100 grams brown sugar
- 1 piece large egg
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 190 grams all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 150 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 120 grams roasted almonds, chopped
- 1 teaspoon flaky sea salt
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy using an electric mixer or a whisk.
Step 3
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the bowl and mix until fully incorporated.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until no streaks of flour remain. Avoid overmixing.
Step 6
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and chopped roasted almonds until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Step 7
Using a cookie scoop or a tablespoon, drop heaping spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 8
Lightly sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt over the top of each cookie dough ball for an extra burst of flavor.
Step 9
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers remain soft and slightly underbaked.
Step 10
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 11
Enjoy your sweet salty chocolate almond cookies fresh or store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
