Here's a delicious twist on basic chocolate chip cookies! These salty-sweet desserts will be the cookie everyone grabs for at holiday dinners.
Tip: If the cookies are not flattening out in the oven, there's a little too much flour. That's okay! Just flatten your dough balls and make cookie dough patties 2 inches apart.
Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days. You can freeze the cookies or the dough. We prefer freezing the dough because who doesn't like warm, freshly baked cookies?! Just roll your dough balls, chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour, place in a Ziplock bag, and freeze! Freeze for up to 3 months, and when you're ready to bake, just add a couple minutes to the time since they are frozen.

- Once butter has cooled, add brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla to the pan.
