TWD: World Peace Cookies

The black tie of cookies. Not too sweet. Handsome, but not too pretty. Deep, rich chocolate- the finest chocolate- cut into chunky morsels. And then the catch: tiny grains of sea salt to tickle, tease, and elude your palate.

The texture is buttery without being crumbly, moist but not gooey, crisp but not crunchy. The scent is divine.

This week's Tuesday's with Dorrie challenge, where cooks from around the globe bake recipes from Dorrie Greenspan's book "Baking, from my Home to Yours," was a success. See other successes here.

The one thing I didn't post... the cookies before I cut them. See, um, you roll the chunky chocolate dough into a log, then chill it, then cut it. And, well, there was no way I could make that log o' chocolate look appetizing.

In fact, I have another log waiting in my fridge, ready for baking, and it kind of repulses me. Um.
