chocolate cookies with crystallized grapefruit  zest and  cocoa nibs

I began with an idea for a cookie that incorporates four ingredients that I love; grapefruit, chocolate, pink himalayan salt and nutmeg. Lately I've become obsessed with freshly grated nutmeg. There's no smell quite like it. I also wanted the cookie to be of the cakey variety, my personal favorite. What I've created could only be described as a mix of traditional holiday flavors and the decadence of a chocolate orange. Substitutions such as orange, meyer lemon or ginger could work if you so desire, but I love the contrast of the pink grapefruit and the chocolate cookies. The cocoa nibs give it a perfect crunch and the pink salt on top balances out the final result. Enjoy.
