Even though the only thing that is simple about this recipe is the cookie itself, the end result is delicious and totally worth it. The recipe is long and makes a ton of batter! However, it is a great cookie for holidays, events or large families! I made about 3 dozen cookies, when all said and done. My employees loved them and so did I, with a cold glass of milk!
This would be adorable in a cute holiday tin or for Santa's treats!!
**Recipe recommends the batter to sit for 24 hrs. before being baked.
2 cups minus 2 tablespoons (8 1/2 ounces) cake flour
1 2/3 cups (8 1/2 ounces) bread flour
1 1/4 teaspoons baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt (I used kosher salt)
2 1/2 sticks (1 1/4 cups) unsalted butter
1 1/4 cups (10 ounces) light brown sugar
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons (8 ounces) granulated sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons natural vanilla extract
8 ounces semi-sweet chocolate, chopped into chunks
4 ounces unsweetened chocolate, grated
8 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
sea salt
Sift flours, baking soda, baking powder and salt into a bowl. Set aside.
Using a stand alone mixer with the paddle attachment, cream butter and sugars together until very light, about 4-5. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla. Reduce speed to low, add dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Stir all chocolate into dough (I recommend a strong spoon (wood/bamboo)). Press plastic wrap against dough and refrigerate for 24 to 36 hours. Dough may be used in batches and can be refrigerated for up to 72 hours.
Step Three:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line cookie sheet with parchment paper or nonstick baking mat.
Step Four:
Bake for 8-10 mins. Depending on your elevation, your baking time will differ. I, also, do not like hard cookies. The gooier the better!! :)
Step Five:
Pour yourself an ice cold glass of milk and ENJOY!!
