31 Chocolate Cookie Recipes, Emphasis on Chocolate
Before we dive into the chocolate cookie recipes, a message: We recently (and controversially) posited that chocolate chip cookies are better absent chocolate chips. We even went so far as to develop a chocolate chipless cookie recipe to prove such a thesis. For the chocolate lovers with us today, scorned, alienated, and/or offended by that audacious take, consider this list—which celebrates the merits of a chocolate-forward cookie rather than one without—our rebuttal.
We have all types of chocolate cookies for your perusal. These recipes double or triple down on the chocolate, incorporating cocoa powder into the dough, decorating the biscuits with a glossy sheen of chocolate frosting, and, of course, folding in loads of chocolate chips or chocolate chunks into the mix (sometimes both). There are chewy chocolate chip cookies, toasty macaroons encasing a dark chocolate core, and two types of fudgy brownie cookies too. (Feeling unhinged? Try these chocolate-feta cookies.) With the holiday season jingling its bells just around the corner, we’ve got tons of chocolaty cookie swap candidates, made extra festive by peppermint, pistachio, and plenty of powdered sugar. Time to crack out the baking sheet and parchment paper, preheat the oven, and get to baking one of our best chocolate cookies.
