Equipment

  • heat-proof bowl
  • hand-held beater
  • cookie trays
  • parchment paper
  • freezer
  • oven

Ingredients
  

Chocolate Mixture

  • 8 oz bittersweet chocolate chopped
  • 5 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 0.5 teaspoon instant coffee or 2 tablespoon very strong coffee (optional)
  • 2 oz brown sugar
  • 5 oz granulated sugar increase this by 1 oz if you like the cookies a little sweeter
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1.2 oz all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon sea salt flakes optional, plus extra to sprinkle on top
  • 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
  • chocolate chips optional

Instructions
 

Preparation Steps

  • Melt the butter, coffee and the chopped chocolate in a heat-proof bowl, while stirring frequently (over a bain-marie/double boiler or in the microwave). Let it cool.
  • While the chocolate is cooling, mix the eggs, sugar, vanilla and salt well together using a hand-held beater. Mix the eggs for about 3-4 minutes until the eggs are thick and pale in color.
  • Add the cooled chocolate to the egg mix and use the hand mix to incorporate it into the egg mix.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk the flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder together.
  • Mix the flour into the chocolate and egg mix, until just combined.
  • Transfer the batter into the freezer until it's firm but easy to scoop (about 30 minutes), or to the fridge for about an hour till firm enough to form scoops.
  • Preheat the oven to 325°F.
  • Line 2 cookie trays with parchment paper.
  • Use a cooking scoop to scoop the cookie batter onto the cookie trays (2 tablespoon cookie scoop) - give them enough space to spread and bake.
  • Optional step - sprinkle some sea salt flakes on the cookie dough.
  • Optional step - evenly stud the cookie dough balls with some chocolate chips.
  • Bake cookies in preheated oven for 9 - 10 minutes. The cookies will look puffed up and the top will become crinkly and cracked.
  • Remove from the oven. Let them cool down a little before transferring to a wire rack to cool down further.

Notes

These cookies have a rich, chewy texture with a characteristic crinkly top, perfect for chocolate lovers.
