Chocolate-Chocolate Chip Cookies

Because sometimes you just need to double the chocolate to double your happiness.

Chocolate-Chocolate Chip Cookies

"In what world could there possibly be too many chocolate chips in a cookie?" –My Husband


As you may already know, I'm not a fan of dark chocolate (don't judge me). However, I can appreciate the dark chocolate fanatics like my husband. This recipe is for all of you Dark Chocoholics out there!



 

Baking Tips:


1. Make sure you are using a quality butter! Brands like 'Kerrygold' are my favorite for baking.


2. Always sift your dry ingredients such as flour, salt, cocoa powder, and especially baking powder and baking soda. This will help reduce lumps and make it easier to mix into other ingredients.


3. Invest in a nice baking pan. The last thing you want is a low quality baking pan that warps and ruins your cookies. I prefer the bakeware from 'Sur La Table' or 'Le Creuset' but no matter what brand you choose, this will save you so much headache when baking.


4. Allow the cookies to cool before moving them. Yes I know it's tempting but leave those cookies alone!


5. This recipe makes 24-28 delicious cookies.

 

Ingredients


 

Directions


  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F with both oven racks in the middle. Then line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper.

  2. In a large bowl, blend butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until creamy.

  3. Next, mix in applesauce then add vanilla extract. Scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl to ensure it is well combined.

  4. In a separate bowl, sift your flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt together.

  5. Add the flour mixture to the creamed mixture and slowly blend. Again, scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl to ensure that all ingredients are well blended.

  6. Next, using your hands or a cookie scooper, scoop out walnut size amounts of cookie dough and shape them into balls. Place 2 inches apart on cookie sheets.

  7. Important: Bake for 6 minutes with one cookie sheet on the top rack and on the bottom rack. Then, rotate the cookie sheet to opposite racks and bake for another 7 minutes. Allow cookies to cool for a bit before transferring to a wire/cookie rack to finish cooling. Enjoy!
