Chocolate chip cookies with chili and sea salt flakes
Recipes for chili chocolate chip cookies are circulating on Mexican food sites and blogs, mostly using very hot chili powders. I made my own version of these cookies. I put about half as much chili powder as usual but still, these cookies will wake you up. When prepared in this way, the cookies come out very soft, either slightly runny on the inside or at least with a soft consistency.
Preparation time: 1.5 hours
Level: Easy
Quantity: About 70 cookies
Ingredients:
250 g wheat flour
80 g of dark cocoa powder
0.5 teaspoon of chili powder
2 eggs
1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon
250 g room temperature butter
170 g of sugar
1.5 teaspoons of vanilla sugar
400 g of dark chocolate buttons or chopped chocolate
Sea salt flakes for sprinkling on cookies
Preparation:
- Mix sugar, butter, flour, eggs, chili, cinnamon, cocoa powder, sugar and dark chocolate.
- Mix the components into a smooth dough. Shape the dough into 2.5 cm balls and place on a baking sheet covered with baking paper.
- Sprinkle sea salt flakes on the cookies.
- Bake at 180 degrees for 12 minutes, no more. Allow the cookies to cool properly after baking.
- Transfer to an airtight container and store in a cool place.
Ready!!
