Calling all Chocoholics this is the one for you! Ooey Gooey rich chocolate overload!Double Chocolate Cookies, my favorite recipe for a chocolate cookie by far...I have tried many and always come back to this one.
Warm right out of the oven, I just love that gooey chocolate
The chocolate and almond flavor are just a perfect pairing~
You can drop or roll these. I roll them, then flatten a little with the palm of my hand.
We love macadamia nuts in these cookies, but you can put any kind of nuts you like or none.
I love chocolate, milk, dark, bitter sweet, have tried them all, and a little bit of each is the best. But you decide what your preference is.
2 cups flour
2 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2/3 cup unsweet cocoa powder
1 large bag 12 oz chocolate chips
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
1 teaspoon pure vanilla
1 1/2 cups of granulated sugar
1 cup butter
2 large eggs (at room temperature)
1 cup macadamia nuts, walnuts, pecans, or your favorite kind coarsely chopped optional
Preheat oven to 350
In a large bowl cream butter, sugar, eggs, and extracts. Sift flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add to creamed mixture. Stir in chips and nuts. Drop by teaspoonfuls or roll into round balls, flatten a little with the palm of your hand then onto ungreased cookie sheets, sprinkle with sugar crystals or regular sugar. Bake at 350 8 minutes. Cool.

Oh my Claudia! Hey, that's sounds kind of like 'Oh my Gosh', no? Like I could start saying that and have other people saying it too when they're amazed (smile).
ReplyDeleteObviously, I think these look delicious!
These are a definite make for me. They have everything I love. Chocolate and nuts. :)
ReplyDeleteAs soon as I read double fudge...that brought me right over. Oh, how happy my hips are right now not to be sitting at your kitchen table ;o)
ReplyDeleteGreat cookie recipe.
Flavourful wishes, Claudia
Wow! those are incredible, how much more chocolatey can you get, look at that melting chocolate inside those cookies! You are definitely the cookie master!
ReplyDeleteI know a few chocoholics that would love these!
ReplyDeleteThese look terrific. But I have to say that the one thing that really grabbed me with the sprinkle of coarse sugar on top. I love that added crunch when you bit into the cookie.
ReplyDeleteOH MY!!!! Chocolate heaven!
ReplyDeletewow ,i'm a chocoholic in a greaaaaat abstinence...but a cookie from you i will eat!it's full of chocolate!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely a choco-holic and I just love that shot with the gooey middle. I figure with the nuts in the cookie, you can call it a 'meal', right? These are amazing.
ReplyDeleteClaudia you know that these type of delights are impossible to have a photo of them in front of me...my chocoholic side is totally overloaded-gorgeous :)
ReplyDeleteCheers,
Gera

ReplyDeleteOh my, these look so great! I'm definitely going to have to give these a try.
ReplyDeleteyou know you can stop it with all these cookie recipes ... NOT ... that said, I'm not sure if I will ever be able to make 'em all, but at least I will have the recipes....thanks
ReplyDeleteChocoholic heaven!!
ReplyDeletethese are making my stomach growl! Oh my what a great looking cookie!!!!
ReplyDeleteI agree -- a little of each type of chocolate is always best.
ReplyDeleteThat way you can either please every chocolate lover (you better make more cookies!) or annoy every other chocolate lover (leaving more cookies for yourself).
Maybe it is just me but shouldn't a true chocoholic love all types of chocolate? Thus you better make a double or triple batch.
I could cry over how badly I want some of those cookies...
ReplyDeleteYum! Chocolate overload? Yes thank you, I'm on board with that!
ReplyDeleteMy kids would love this. You are good at cookies!
ReplyDeleteUnless you intend on sending me a dozen, stop posting these fabulous cookie photos. I'm over here drooling on the keyboard and having heart palpitations Claudia! No really, OH MY they look heavenly. You are definitely the cookie queen.
ReplyDeleteWow - these look so amazing. And then when I read the recipe and saw macadamias were also involved I about fainted. Yum. I have to make these!
ReplyDeleteThese cookies are so beyond words, I won't even try. You really are a kitchen goddess and these recipes should be in a recipe book!
