Instructions

  • Melt the butter, and allow to cool (so it's not piping hot).
  • Stir in the sugars until well combined.
  • Stir in the egg and vanilla extract until just combined. Set aside.
  • In another bowl, stir together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  • Stir the dry ingredients into the wet until a soft dough forms.
  • Stir in the chocolate chips.
  • Grease an 8x8 baking pan (or line with parchment paper).
  • Add the batter and gently press so it fills the pan. Sprinkle on the sea salt.
  • Bake at 325°F for 25-30 minutes. The edges should be brown while the center may still look a little gooey.
  • Allow to cool before cutting into squares.
