when i read her entry, i knew i had to try this someday. it became an installment for the boy’s birthday present.

the picture doesn’t do justice to the taste of the cookies, primarily because i took it in bad lighting. they were superb; the boy said that the chocolate taste is a “shot to the head.” i had six at one sitting with a glass of cold milk.

i didn’t get perfect rounds because i was in a hurry to bake them off (it was past 1 in the morning) and i think my chocolate bits were a tad too large, but these has been one of the best cookies i have ever made. and one note, i substituted the fleur de sel with normal salt.
