Let's Make Some Cookies for Santa

Have you ever left milk and cookies out for Santa? I know I did when I was young. There was even a year when I debated how Santa got into our house with my dad and took out a ruler to measure the bite marks on the leftover cookie that I thought Santa had left. Looking back, props to him for keeping a straight face while humoring a 7-year-old.

It was one of my favorite Christmas memories and one that I’ll definitely be passing down to my daughter for as long as she believes in the big man in red.

Chef Jacopo Bruni has worked all over the world and his desserts have landed him positions at The London EDITION and The Peninsula Beijing, as well as a role with Beijing’s entertainment crown jewel, Universal Beijing Resort, where his sweet creations were loved by guests at both NUO Resort Hotel and The Universal Studios Grand Hotel.

Recipe

Making Jacopo Bruni’s famous chocolate sea salt cookies is actually easier than one would expect. If you can measure properly, you can make cookies!

First, whisk the eggs with sugar. Then, melt the butter and chocolate and mix them in with the eggs and sugar. Next, add in all the remaining ingredients.

Scoop out approximately 35g of cookie dough with a spoon and put the spoonfuls on a cookie sheet.

Sprinkle a bit of sea salt in the center of the cookies and bake for about 8 minutes at 180 degrees Celsius.
