Deluxe Double Chocolate Cookies

"I found this recipe on another site and modified it slightly.These babies are rich and extremely chocolaty. They almost brownie like chewy, dense and fudgy, with a wrinkled appearance. Whatever you do, don't over bake them and use good quality chocolate and cocoa. I use Lindt 70% cocoa bittersweet chocolate. Next time I'll try adding some chocolate chunks and walnuts to it (although they fine as is, also making them using a 1 tsp measure as they are rich."

  1. I've been making these the last couple years for Christmas & Valentines Day. I use dark chocolate chips for the chocolate pieces (2 & 2/3 cups equal 1 lb). I always get tons of compliments on them. They disapear fast, wherever I take them.
     
  2. The cookies were delicious. Very rich and chocolaty. I modified the recipe a little, using 3/4 chocolate and 1/4 macadamia nuts. (:
     
  3. Definitely a wow! Not only rich, fudgy and wonderfully chocolaty, they are one of those 'you just can't eat one kind of cookie' - the kind every chocolate lover raves about and goes home recipe in hand. Made as posted - no changes needed. Thank you lemoncurd.
     
  4. Wowee! Very nice semi-sweet chocolate flavor. Chewy on the outside and gooey on the inside. Sort of like a brownie pie cookie. Easy to make but hard to let it sit 45 minutes until you can bake them! Instructions don't say when to add the cocoa powder so I added it with the dry ingredients. Yes...I can imagine these with nuts, chocolate chips or even cherries in them...but they are also VERY nice as they are. Thanks for a keeper recipe lemoncurd! Made for 1-2-3 hit wonders. I forsee 100 ratings of this recipe.
     
  5. These are so fantastic, I can't believe it.
