Chocolate heaven.

The many 5-star reviews led me to make these cookies. I did weigh my ingredients, but my dough was very crumbly. I over-mixed mine (my single biggest cooking problem -- plunging in and doing things before I read it carefully). The instruction suggest covering your bowl with a dish towel and pulsing your mixer on and off. I use those old 1940's pyrex mixing bowls, though, which are low and wide. So I used two sheets of plastic wrap (one on each side). I was so thrilled that there wasn't flour everywhere I just kept on mixing.

More than half my cookies were a pile of crumbs that I compressed into a blob. Cooked up fine, but not pretty. The other half were less crumbly, and looked ok. But they all tasted amazing.

I used regular chocolate chips (chopped up). I think the suggestion of crunchy salt is a very good one.
