Salted double-chocolate olive oil cookies
Cookies

This is inspired by a recipe for Olive Oil and Seat Salt Brownie Cookies that I found all over the Internet. I traced it back to Ashton Epps Swank from the blog Something Swanky. <br /> <br />I removed the brownie component of these cookies by taking out the baking soda and one egg. I added less sugar, flour, and cocoa. I added more salt and vanilla (always). And then I snuck in a bit of butter (because even though these are olive oil cookies, I think butter makes everything better). <br /> <br />They aren't the prettiest cookies. But they are some of the richest and most flavorful chocolate nuggets I've ever eaten. As my son says, "You can taste every single ingredient loud and clear." <br /> <br />Use an olive oil that is mild and affordable. Save your fancy herbaceous olive oil for drizzling.
