Organic Dark Chocolate Chip Cookies with Himalayan pink salt!

What you'll need:

• 1 cup organic butter (227 grams)
• 1/2 cup organic white sugar
• 1 cup packed organic brown sugar- I used light organic brown sugar this time because it was all I had left, so they are lighter in color ;)
• *1 egg- organic, free-range 
• 1 tsp organic vanilla
• 2 cups organic flour (290 grams) (I used wheat, but you can use white too!)
• 2 cups organic chocolate chips
• 1 tsp organic baking soda
• 1 tsp Organic Himalayan Salt aka for me a couple cracks (about 4) 

I mix this by hand because I don't have a fancy KitchenAid mixer yet...(that's my first new house warming gift to myself once we buy our first home! http://www.kitchenaid.com/shop/countertop-appliances-1/countertop-appliances-2/stand-mixers-3/-[KP26M1XGA]-401638/KP26M1XGA/

Make Cookies:

Cream together butter, white and brown sugars.

Add egg and vanilla.

Blend in flour and chocolate chips.

Add baking soda, mix just to combine. Then crack in the salt & fold. 

Be careful not to over-mix!

Drop by teaspoonfuls onto a lined baking sheet. ( I LOVE the pampered chef scoopers, I have to many friends that are reps so it wouldn't be fair to promote just one so instead you can find the same version here... http://www.bedbathandbeyond.com/store/product/oxo-good-grips-cookie-scoop/102818

Bake at 350 for about 8-10 minutes.. 

*If you live at a higher altitude (over 1000 feet) you will probably need to add an extra egg and a bit more vanilla to the recipe, otherwise the dough is far too dry and you won't be able to form cookies from it. 

When they come out of the oven KEEP THEM ON THE PAN to cook longer! I leave mine on for about 5 more minutes. Than I put them on a cooling rank to harden for about 5 more minutes! Don't stack them until hard or they will stick together! 

Enjoy!- TC
