Hook & Ladder’s Sea Salt
Chocolate Chip Cookies

Yields 60 cookies

Ingredients
900 grams butter
650 grams brown sugar
500 grams white sugar
6 whole eggs
1,080 grams all-purpose flour
4 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 tablespoons water
900 grams chocolate chips
Maldon sea salt for sprinkling 

Directions

Set oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.  

In a large bowl, cream butter and sugars together until fluffy. 

Add eggs to butter-and-sugar mixture one at a time, mixing after each until fully incorporated.  

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda and salt.  

Slowly add flour mixture to butter-and-sugar mixture. Combine until flour mixture is completely absorbed.

Add vanilla and water to the dough until combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.

Scoop out about 1 1/2 tablespoons of dough, gently roll into a ball and set on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Repeat, placing cookies about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10 minutes. Set cookie sheet on wire rack to cool. Finish with Maldon sea salt while the cookies are still warm.
