From Everyday Food. I haven't tried these yet, but am planning adding to my Holiday cookie baskets. Update: Thanks to Gayla's kind review I had to make these NOW. Soooo glad I did, some of the best cookies I've ever made. Almost like a chocolate covered cherry cookie. Maybe I just make big cookies, but I only ended up with about 24, and 11 1/2 minutes was just the right bake time for my oven. Ingredients:
1 cup all-purpose flour |
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
8 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped |
1/2 cup unsalted butter, cut in small pieces |
1/2 cup sugar |
1/4 cup dark brown sugar, packed |
2 large eggs |
12 ounces semisweet chocolate chunks |
1 1/2 cups dried cherries |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350. Line three baking sheets with parchment. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt; set aside. 2. Place chopped chocolate and butter in a large heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water; stir until melted and smooth. Remove from heat; whisk in sugars, then eggs til smooth. 3. Whisk in dry ingredients just until combined (do not overmix). Fold in chocolate chunks and cherries; press plastic wrap onto surface of dough and refrigerate 30 to 45 minutes. 4. Drop mounds of dough (equal to 2 level tablespoons), about 2 inches apart, onto prepared sheets. Bake just until edges are firm (but not darkening) 11 to 13 minutes. Cool on baking sheets 1 to 2 minutes; transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. |
