Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (or 325°F for a fan/convection oven).

  2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter, almond butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, split vanilla bean, maple syrup, and espresso powder until light and fluffy.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The butter and sugars look light and fluffy. Cream until evenly combined before adding the almond milk.

  3. Add the almond milk and mix well until fully incorporated.

  4. Fold in the chopped dark chocolate, then add the flour, baking soda, and salt, mixing just until the dough comes together.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The dough comes together with chocolate distributed through it. Mix only until the flour is incorporated.

  5. Drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto a parchment‑lined baking sheet, flattening them slightly to form half‑domes.

  6. Bake for 15 minutes (18–20 minutes in a fan/convection oven) until the edges are golden.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The edges are golden while the centers remain softer. Use the edge color as the visual cue for removing the cookies.

  7. Remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle with flaky sea salt.

  8. Allow the cookies to rest on the sheet for 2 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The cookies firm on the sheet before transfer. Move them gently to the rack after their brief rest.

  9. Serve and enjoy with a glass of cold milk.
