Tips & Variations

  • Add espresso. A couple of pinches of espresso powder will deepen the chocolate flavor.
  • Make them minty. These cookies taste amazing with peppermint extract and mint-flavored chocolate chips.
  • Make them teeny. Make lots of teeny cookies (be sure not to overbake!) if you want to feed bite-sized cookies to lots of people.

  15. I don't know what I did wrong, but these were a big flop. They tasted AMAZING! But they didn't set up and wouldn't come off the pan without falling apart. I'm going to scrape off what I haven't taken off yet and use it all to make a trifle. But I'm disappointed that I don't have cookies. Yours are so pretty. Mine, not so much.
