FROSTED DOUBLE CHOCOLATE CHIP DROP COOKIES



Frosted Double Chocolate Chip Drop Cookies image

This recipe came from my sister who is the best baker in my family. These cookies are the best if you like soft, doughy, sweet cookies. I have never had them with the nuts, but if you choose to include them, use only half of the chocolate chips (6oz). Having a big sweet tooth, I never understood why people would ever use UN-sweetened chocolate squares, so I tried it with semi-sweet and man were they too sweet with the frosting! I have also seen my sister use cocoa in lieu of choc. squares, but am not sure of the exact measurement. Note: I usually use 1-2 tubs of the pre-made regular vanilla frosting (not whipped), but I couldn't remember the size of the container..hence the two cups....

CHOCOLATE EXTREMES (DOUBLE CHOCOLATE COOKIES)



Chocolate Extremes (Double Chocolate Cookies) image

These provocatively named cookies came to The Times in a 1999 Sunday Magazine article about Mrs. London's Bake Shop, a husband and wife owned bakery in Saratoga Springs, N.Y., known for their sweets. While the name suggests these cookies might veer into the too sweet and too rich category, they do not. Shiny and crackly on top while tender and deeply chocolaty in the center, they're like an ideal brownie in cookie form. They're kind of perfect. (One note: The recipe calls for bittersweet chocolate, but feel free to use semisweet or a combination of the two. Also, a sprinkle of flaky sea salt before baking would not be a bad idea.)

Categories     cookies and bars, dessert

Time 30m

Yield About 18 large cookies

Number Of Ingredients 9

9 ounces bittersweet chocolate, preferably Valrhona, finely chopped, plus 6 ounces cut into 1/4 to 1/2-inch chunks
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon brewed espresso
2 large eggs, at room temperature
7 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
7 tablespoons sifted cake flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 cups coarsely chopped pecans

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. In the top of a double boiler set over simmering water, combine the finely chopped bittersweet chocolate, butter and espresso. Stir occasionally until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
  • Meanwhile, in the bowl of an electric mixer, combine eggs and sugar and whip until the mixture is light in color and increases substantially in volume, about 10 minutes. Beat in the vanilla extract. Stir in the melted chocolate. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder and fold them into the chocolate mixture until just combined. Fold in the pecans and chocolate chunks.
  • Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper. Drop the batter by heaping tablespoons onto the paper, leaving about 2 inches between each. Bake until the cookies are slightly puffed and cracked on the outside but gooey inside, about 10 to 14 minutes. Cool on the cookie sheets.

DOUBLE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES



Double Chocolate Chip Cookies image

With plenty of cocoa powder and big wells of dark chocolate, these double chocolate cookies are so fudgy that a tall glass of cold milk is not only delicious, but essential - especially when they are served hot from the oven. Just like David Leite's impeccable chocolate chip cookies, they bake up even better after the dough has had time to rest in the fridge. The extralong chill gives the dough a chance to hydrate fully and firm up, which yields more uniformly baked cookies, with the perfect amount of crunch around the edges and chew in the center. Thin chocolate discs or wafers, which are widely available, are used here. They melt into lovely chocolate layers as the cookies bake. But if you can't find them, chocolate chips make a fine substitute; there's no need to adjust the baking time.

Provided by Samantha Seneviratne

Time 1h

Yield 9 to 10 big cookies

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup/145 grams all-purpose flour
3/4 cup/75 grams Dutch-process cocoa powder
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
10 tablespoons/141 grams unsalted butter, at room temperature
3/4 cup/150 grams dark brown sugar
2/3 cup/133 grams granulated sugar
1 large egg
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 cups/305 grams semisweet or bittersweet chocolate discs (or use 2 cups/340 grams chocolate chips)

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, salt, baking powder and baking soda. Set aside.
  • In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar until very light, about 5 minutes. Add egg and vanilla and beat until well combined.
  • With the mixer on low, add the dry ingredients and beat just until combined. Add the chocolate discs and mix briefly to combine. Press plastic wrap against the dough and chill it for at least 24 hours and up to 36.
  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Portion the dough out into balls slightly larger than golf balls, about 3 1/2 ounces each, and transfer five balls to the baking sheet. (They will spread significantly.) Bake the cookies until set, being careful to remove cookies from the oven when still soft in the center, about 18 minutes. Transfer the parchment with the cookies to a rack to cool. Repeat with the remaining dough, baking a second batch of four or five cookies. Serve warm.

Tips:

  • For chewier cookies, chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking.
  • To ensure the cookies are evenly cooked, use a cookie scoop to measure out the dough.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
  • Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack before frosting.
  • For a richer chocolate flavor, use semisweet or bittersweet chocolate chips.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • To make sure your cookies are perfectly round, use a cookie cutter to shape them before baking.
  • For a fun twist, add chopped nuts, dried fruit, or even bacon to your cookies.
  • Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Frosted Double Chocolate Chip Drop Cookies are the perfect treat for any chocolate lover. These cookies are soft, chewy, and packed with chocolate flavor. The frosting is rich and creamy, and it perfectly complements the cookies. Whether you're enjoying them as a snack or dessert, these cookies are sure to be a hit.
