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.
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Gently fold in the chopped walnuts until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Using a tablespoon or a cookie scoop, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
