CRISPY CHOCOLATE COOKIES



Crispy Chocolate Cookies image

Not in the mood for chocolate chip, but still wanting chocolate cookies, I adapted a crispy ginger recipe (231798) beyond recognition. I make half recipes usually so that's why some of the measurements look a little bit wonky. These taste just like chocolate graham crackers to me.

Categories     Drop Cookies

Time 27m

Yield 3 dozen small cookies

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 small egg
1/4 cup honey
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 3/8 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda (heaping)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup cocoa powder
raw sugar (optional)

Steps:

  • Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit
  • cream together butter and sugars.
  • add honey, egg and vanilla.
  • Mix dry ingredients.
  • slowly add dry ingredients to wet, mixing thoroughly (I usually do this in 2 or three stages).
  • Using two spoons, scoop desired amount of dough onto one spoon, dunk in raw sugar (if desired), then use the second spoon to slide the dough onto your pan, sugar side up.
  • Bake 10-12 minutes for softer cookies, longer for crispier cookies.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70% is ideal.
  • Make sure your chocolate is tempered before you start making the wafers. This will help them to set properly and have a smooth, shiny finish.
  • If you don't have a marble slab, you can temper your chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water. Just be sure to stir the chocolate constantly so that it doesn't overheat.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the wafers tough.
  • Use a piping bag to spread the batter evenly onto the prepared baking sheets. This will help to ensure that the wafers are all the same size and shape.
  • Bake the wafers until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
  • Let the wafers cool completely before you store them. This will help to prevent them from sticking together.

Conclusion:

Crispy and crunchy chocolate wafers are a delicious and versatile treat that can be enjoyed on their own or used as an ingredient in other desserts. They are easy to make and can be stored for up to a week in an airtight container. So next time you are looking for a sweet snack, give these chocolate wafers a try.
