Favorite Cookies?

Now that Thanksgiving is over, who is ready to talk cookies? What is your favorite to make?

I'll start with the Salted Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter from Gimme Some Oven

INGREDIENTS:

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup dark chocolate cocoa powder (or unsweetened Dutch-process cocoa powder )

1/2 tsp. baking soda

1/2 tsp. salt

4 ounces coarsely chopped dark chocolate

1 cup dark chocolate chips

1 cup peanut butter chocolate chips

1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter

1 1/2 cups sugar

2 large eggs

1 tsp. pure vanilla extract

sea salt for sprinkling

DIRECTIONS:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

Whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl; set aside. Melt coarsely chopped chocolate with the butter in a small heatproof bowl in a double-boiler or in the microwave, stirring frequently.

Once melted, transfer chocolate mixture to the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Add sugar, eggs, and vanilla; mix on medium speed until combined. Reduce speed to low; gradually mix in flour mixture. Fold in chocolate and peanut butter chips.

Round batter into heaping tablespoon-fulls, and place 2 inches apart on parchment-lined baking sheets. Sprinkle each ball of dough with a pinch of sea salt. Bake until cookies are flat and surfaces begin to crack, about 12-15 minutes. (Do not overbake these, or they will totally dry out!) Transfer on parchment to wire racks and let cool.

Serve immediately, or store in a sealed container for up to 3 weeks.



bon appetit
