Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookies





Hiya peeps! As promised, here's the recipe for Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookies I made a few weeks ago. It was basically melted chocolate with a wee bit of flour and eggs and baked to a chewy and gooey cookie!

Ingredients (Recipe is from David Lebovitz's Ready For Dessert Book)

450g bittersweet chocolate, I used Callebaut 58% cocoa buttons
60g butter
70g flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt,I sprinkled fleur the sel
4 large eggs
350g sugar, I used 250g sugar and 100g brown sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla paste
320g bittersweet chocolate, I used Ghirardelli
100g walnuts or pecans

Method

Add chocolate and butter in a heat proof bowl, Melt them over a pot of simmering water. Remove from heat.
Whisk together flour and salt and baking powder.
In a stand mixer or using a hand mixer, whisk together the eggs, sugar, and vanilla over high speed until a ribbon is formed with the mixture. With the mixer running slowly add the melted chocolate butter mixture until well incorporated.
Then using a spatula mix the rest of the ingredients ie the choc buttons and nuts.
You can either refrigerate the batter/dough, or bake immmediately. Of course I couldn't resist, and baked immediately by dropping tablespoonfuls of the batter on silpats and baking paper. Bake at 165C about 9 minutes.

After that enjoy, enjoy and enjoy till the last piece that you could dug your hands into the cookie jar! Hihi, it was that good!
