Sea Salt and Thyme Chocolate Chip Cookies
Chocolate Chip Cookies get a fun upgrade with the addition of sea salt and fresh thyme! The sea salt adds a bit of salty-sweet flavor that is amazing, and the thyme adds just a hint of a floral flavor. These are better the longer you let them sit, so don't eat them all the first day!
