Kerrin Rousset’s Multigrain Chocolate Chip Cookies – Design*Sponge

When I think of chocolate, I think of Kerrin Rousset, the blogger behind MyKugelhopf and Sweet Zürich tours. Kerrin and I met over Twitter a few years ago and I had the immense pleasure of meeting her in person over a bowl of granola in New York. These two loves of hers are the inspiration behind her recipe today for Multigrain Chocolate Chip Cookies with Maldon Salt. I first found out about these cookies from an image she posted on her Instagram feed, and thought it would be a great recipe to share with our readers. Procuring the cracked rye, or rye grits, proved to be a bit of a challenge for me in Rome, where the whole grain is not terribly easy to find. However, you may make cracked rye by having your local health food store run a batch of whole rye through a grinder, to grind it into coarse bits, or use a coffee grinder. These little crunchy surprises are an essential feature of Kerrin’s cookie, which I absolutely love! –Kristina
