    Death by Chocolate Cookies

    Makes about 30 medium cookies

    Ingredients

    1¾ sticks unsalted butter, softened

    2 cups sugar

    4 large eggs

    1 TB vanilla extract

    2 cups all-purpose flour

    ⅔ cup cocoa powder

    1 TB baking soda

    1 tsp salt

    2½ cups dark chocolate chips or chopped dark chocolate, melted

    1 cup milk chocolate chips

    1 cup dark chocolate chips

    1 cup white chocolate chips

    Optional: additional chocolate chips for rolling

    Method

    In a bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

    Place the dark chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and melt in 20-second bursts, stirring well between each round, until smooth. Let cool slightly.

    In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar until pale and fluffy, making sure the sugar is fully incorporated.

    Add the eggs two at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla.

    Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture in stages, mixing just until combined.

    Fold in the melted dark chocolate until the dough is uniform and glossy.

    From the milk, dark, and white chocolate chips, fold about half (roughly 1½ cups total) into the dough. Reserve the remaining chips for coating.

    The dough is ready to scoop immediately.

    Using a 1-oz scoop, portion the dough, roll each portion into a smooth ball, dip it into the reserved chocolate chips, then re-roll gently to press the chips into the surface. Add more chips if you want heavier coverage.

    Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.

    Place the coated dough balls on the prepared sheets, spacing generously.

    Bake for 12–14 minutes, until the cookies have spread and cracked on top.

    The cookies will be very soft when they come out of the oven. Let them cool on the pan for several minutes to set. They’ll stay rich, chewy, and intensely chocolate-forward inside.

    I’m surprised there’s no coffee or expresso powder included, with how much I hear that it enhances the chocolate taste.

    I swear with each video that vanilla pour keeps getting heavier and heavier.

  12. WoundWaffle

    What’d you pay for all of those ingredients?

    My only issue was the microwave… sure it worked. But it’s more work as you need to babysit it and the microwave can easily scorch it.

    Just do the double boiler method. Float a metal bowl in a pot of water. Bring to a simmer and you can walk away as it melts.
