Categories     dessert

Time 1h

Yield about 2 dozen large cookies

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
4 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped
4 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
4 large eggs
2 tablespoons buttermilk
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup natural cocoa powder, such as Hershey's or Scharffen Berger
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
11 ounces (1 bag) semisweet chocolate chunks
1 cup dried cherries. optional

Steps:

  • Position racks in the lower and upper third of the oven and preheat to 325 degrees F. Line 3 baking sheets with parchment or silicone mats. (If you don't have 3 pans, simply cool the pan between batches.)
  • Put the butter and the unsweetened and semisweet chocolates in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Heat at 75 percent power in the microwave until soft, about 2 minutes. Stir and heat again until melted, up to 2 minutes more. (Alternatively, put the chocolates and butter in a heatproof bowl. Bring a saucepan filled with an inch or so of water to a very slow simmer; set the bowl over, but not touching the water, and stir occasionally until melted and smooth.)
  • Stir the light brown and granulated sugars and vanilla into the chocolate mixture with a wooden spoon. Add the eggs and buttermilk and beat vigorously until thick and glossy.
  • In another bowl, whisk the flour, cocoa, cinnamon and salt together. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and stir until just mixed. Stir in chocolate chunks and dried cherries, if using.
  • Drop the batter in heaping tablespoons onto baking sheets--a small ice cream scoop is ideal for this. Space the cookies about 2-inches apart. Bake until the cookies set but are soft and fudgy on the inside, 12 to 15 minutes.
  • Cool cookies on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a rack to cool completely. Serve.
  • Store cookies in a tightly sealed container at room temperature for up to a week.

AUNT SALLY'S COCOA DROPS



Aunt Sally's Cocoa Drops image

My mother used to make these cookies, they are my all time favorite. She usually frosted them with a white icing. I made them for my children but they usually didn't last long enough to get frosted. Now I make them for my 14 month old granddaughter. They are so soft and so good! I usually double the recipe.

FUDGY COCOA NO-BAKE TREATS



Fudgy Cocoa No-Bake Treats image

This came from the back of Hershey's Cocoa. You can no longer find this recipe on a box of cocoa or on their website. So here it is for everyone to enjoy. This is the BEST recipe I have found for this cookie and I am always asked for the recipe when I make them. It is super easy and they will melt in your mouth as long as you DO NOT over boil. Over boiling will cause them to be dry, which is the main complaint of No-Bakes.

  • Let the cookies cool completely before enjoying them. This will allow the flavors to develop.
