Amazing Giant Chocolate-Toffee Cookies

"These are wonderful and oh so chocolaty! The toffee adds a really nice flavor to the cookies, too. These are big cookies--probably 4" diameter. So, you can make them smaller if you prefer. Prep time doesn't include time to chill dough."

directions

  • Combine flour, baking powder and salt in a small bowl, whisk to blend.
  • Stir chocolate and butter in top of a double boiler over simmering water until melted and smooth. If you don't have a double boiler, you can use a sauce pan over low heat.
  • Remove pan from over water (heat) and cool to lukewarm.
  • Beat sugar and eggs in a bowl until thick (about 5 minutes) using an electric mixer.
  • Beat in chocolate mixture and vanilla.
  • Stir in flour mixture, then toffee and nuts.
  • Chill batter until firm (about 45 minutes).
  • Preheat oven to 350°.
  • Drop batter by 1/4 cupfuls onto parchment-lined cookie sheets, 2 1/2" apart.
  • Bake just until tops are dry and cracked but cookies are still soft to the touch, about 15 minutes.
  • Cool on cookie sheets.

  2. Moist, soft, chewy, delicious. I left out the nuts (just this time). I did use the Heath bits from the bag and I thought they tasted great. However next time I will try the candy pieces. I used a smaller scoop so they weren't giant just normal size.These, obviously, go so good with a big cup of milk.
     
  3. These are beautiful, easy, soft and chewy cookies. I used a combo of bitter and semi and toasted pecans instead of walnuts. I got about 22 cookies baked for 15 minutes. Make sure to chill the batter... recipe is super easy!
     
  4. All I have to say is that these sound absolutely wonderful! I will let you know what I think as soon as I try them... I am excited to try this recipe.
     
  5. These cookies are FANTASTIC!!! I made them for my co-workers one day and I got so many complements that they were the best cookies. Everyone loved how chewy they were and how they were like eating a brownie cookie. I used Ghirardelli Chocolate in my recipe, which added to the unbelievably delicious indulgence.
