Chocolate Chip Sablé

Homemade chocolate chip sablé

Good morning lovely followers! You might be wondering why I named these chocolate chip cookies sablé instead of cookies. Well you have the right to wonder. Let me tell you a quick story about cookies.
What is the basic ingredient in a cookie? 
Do you know the answer?
Well right, BUTTER... or FAT in general
It helps give it its desired crunch and texture. But along with the fat you choose to use, any added ingredients in its required proportion will play the main role in giving your cookies its identity. Either crucnhy, moist, chewy, etc.

I have many many chocolate chip recipes. The one you will learn today is the exact sablé recipe with added chips in it. It has a crunch, it is lite and you will hate me for it cause you won't be able to stop eating.
