So the title is a bit of a mouthful, but boy oh boy are these cookies delicious. I saw them on smitten kitten earlier this week and couldn’t get them off my mind. I mean, white chocolate aannnd salt? Sounds like heaven.

I mixed and poured and mixed some more until all the ingredients had been incorporated. I scooped them onto a baking sheet and then sprinkled a little sea salt on top of each one. I put them in the oven for the required time and when I pulled them out I was a little bummed to see that they had spread and flattened more than I had expected. But, I rolled with the punches and transfered them to the cooling racks.

I’m happy to say that even though they’re not the prettiest cookies, it’s what’s inside that counts… and they taste great. In fact, the flatness works in their favor by making them nice and crispy with a rich buttery flavor. Every once in a while you come upon a chunk of chocolate or a sprinkle of salt and it’s pretty great. I think next time I may cut back the butter by a few tablespoons, but other than that, they are probably the best oatmeal cookie out there.
