Cooking instruction summary:

To make the cookies - in a small bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt. Set aside.In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add the cream cheese and butter. Beat on medium speed for about 1 minute, until well combined. Add in both kinds of sugar. Beat on medium speed until light and well combined, about 2 minutes. Add in the egg and vanilla extract and beat until combined. Slowly add in the flour mixture, mixing on low speed until combined. Remove the bowl from the mixer and gently fold in the chocolate chips. Transfer the bowl to the refrigerator and chill for about 45 minutes to 1 hour.* Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.Scoop about 1 ½ to 2 tablespoons of dough (I used my large cookie scoop). Drop on the prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Use your fingers to flatten each cookie a little (they won’t really spread while baking).** Bake for about 14 to 16 minutes, until the cookies are set. Let the cookies cool directly on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely. If you are baking the cookies in batches, make sure you keep the dough in the refrigerator in between. For the topping - lay out a piece of wax paper on a work surface or a baking sheet. Melt the white chocolate (I usually do this in the microwave - heating in 30 second intervals at 50% powder, stirring after each until smooth). Carefully dip half of each cookie in the white chocolate and then set on the wax paper. Sprinkle immediately with sea salt. Repeat with the remaining cookies. Let the white chocolate harden completely before removing from the wax paper. Store in an airtight container.

Food Trivia

Death row inmates in Texas don't get to pick their last meal.

Food Joke

Jack goes to the doctor and says "Doc I'm having trouble getting my penis erect, can you help me?" After a complete examination the doctor tells Jack, "Well the problem is that the muscles around the base of your penis are damaged. There's really nothing I can do for you unless you're willing to try an experimental treatment." Jack asks sadly, "And that would be?" "Well," the Doctor explains, "What we would do is take the muscles from the trunk of a baby elephant and implant them in your penis." Jack thinks about it silently then says, "Well the thought of going through life without ever having sex again is too much, let's go for it." Jack went under the knife, and, after a period of recovery and healing, returned to the Doc for his blessing. Following the examination, the Doc pronounced Jack "healed and ready for action". Eager to use his experimentally enhanced equipment, Jack planned a romantic evening for his girlfriend and took her to one of the nicest restaurants in town, anticipating a happy conclusion to the evening. In the middle of dinner he felt a stirring between his legs that continued to the point of being painful. To release the pressure, Jack placed his napkin on his lap and unzipped his fly. His penis immediately sprung from his pants, flipped the napkin on the floor, went to the top of the table, grabbed a bread roll and then returned to his pants! His girlfriend was stunned at first but then, imagining the possibilities, said with a sly smile and a gleam in her eye, "That was incredible! Can you do it again?" Jack groaned, "Probably, but I don't think I can fit another roll in my ass."
