Notes
- If using salted butter rather than unsalted butter, do not add any additional salt!
- Make sure you have your other ingredients measured and ready to stir in as soon as the chocolate comes off the heat.
- Don't overcook the chocolate mixture. Otherwise, it will become too thick, and you will end up with crumbly cookies.
- It's VERY important you let them cool on the countertop before putting them in the fridge, or they will become gooey.
