Rich chocolate cookies

Rich chocolate cookies are a delightful treat perfect for chocoholics. These cookies boast a deep, luxurious chocolate flavor complemented by the crunch of walnuts. Follow these simple steps for a batch of delectable cookies that will impress everyone.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup butter
110g
1 cup dark chocolate
230g
1 cup brown sugar
230g
3 eggs
150g
1 tsp vanilla extract
4g
3/4 cup all-purpose white wheat flour
90g
1/2 cup self-raising flour
72g
1/3 cup dry cocoa powder
50g
1 cup walnuts
230g

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Baking Sheets:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. Melt Chocolate and Butter:
- In a heatproof bowl, combine the butter and dark chocolate.
- Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler method) and stir occasionally until both the chocolate and butter are completely melted and smooth.
- Remove the bowl from the heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
3. Mix Wet Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the brown sugar and the cooled chocolate-butter mixture.
- Beat in the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next.
- Stir in the vanilla extract.
4. Combine Dry Ingredients:
- In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, self-raising flour, and cocoa powder.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
5. Add Walnuts:
- Gently fold in the chopped walnuts until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
6. Form Cookies:
- Using a tablespoon or a cookie scoop, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
7. Bake:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers still look slightly underbaked. The cookies will continue to cook as they cool on the baking sheets.
8. Cool:
- Remove the baking sheets from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the sheets for about 5 minutes.
- Transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. Serve and Enjoy:
- Once cooled, enjoy your rich chocolate cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage.

Tips:

- Ensure the butter and eggs are at room temperature for easier mixing.

- Use high-quality dark chocolate for a richer flavor.

- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking to prevent the cookies from spreading too thin.

- Toast the walnuts lightly before adding them to intensify their flavor.

- Use a cookie scoop to form even-sized cookies for uniform baking.

- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Your rich chocolate cookies are now ready to enjoy. Serve them warm with a glass of milk or pack them as a sweet treat for later. The combination of dark chocolate and walnuts in these cookies strikes the perfect balance of sweetness and texture.
