Step by Step Instructions

Step 1

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add the butter, light brown sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix on low until all the butter and sugar is combined, then cream on low for 5 minutes or until light and fluffy.

Add the eggs, flour, baking soda, and sea salt in that order. Mix on low until combined.

Step 3

Chop 2 of the chocolate bars and add into the dough and mix on low until combined. Chop the remaining half chocolate bar and reserve for adding on top of the cookies.

Step 4

Using your hands form the dough into 20 balls and place on the prepared baking sheet. Add the remaining chocolate on top of the cookie dough. Refrigerate the baking sheet for at least 30 minutes.

Step 5

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a second baking sheet with parchment paper. Transfer half the cookie dough to the second baking sheet and spread out evenly.

Step 6

Bake for 15 to 18 minutes or until lightly golden brown around the edges. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt immediately after coming out of the oven. Allow to cool completely on the baking sheets. (Be sure to check the Notes for high altitude baking instructions if you are baking above 5,000 feet!).

FAQ's

Can I use another kind of chocolate bar?

Yes, feel free to use any kind of toffee chocolate bar you like. If you change the chocolate bar to something without toffee though, then that flavor won't be in the cookies, as these cookies are getting the toffee flavor from the toffee in the chocolate.

Can I leave off the flaky sea salt?

Yes, this is totally optional! But, I really love sweet and salty dark chocolate cookies so I love adding it!

How should I store these cookies?

These Salted Toffee Dark Chocolate Cookies are soft and chewy, so they are best stored in an airtight container. You could also keep them under a cake dome.
