Chocolate-Chocolate Cookies
- 225 g butter, at room temperature 16 tablespoons (2 sticks)
- 300 g sugar (1 1/2 cups)
- 100 g glucose (1/4 cup)
- 1 egg
- 1 g vanilla extract (1/4 teaspoon)
- 60 g 55% chocolate, melted (2 ounces)
- 200 g flour (1 1/4 cups)
- 100 g cocoa powder, preferably Valrhona (3/4 cup)
- 3 g baking powder (3/4 teaspoon)
- 1.5 g baking soda (1/4 teaspoon)
- 7 g kosher salt (1 3/4 teaspoons)
- 1/2 recipe Chocolate Crumb (page 77)
- Combine the butter, sugar, and glucose in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and cream together on medium-high for 2 to 3 minutes.
- Scrape down the sides of the bowl, add the egg, vanilla, and melted chocolate, and beat for 7 to 8 minutes.
- (See page 27 for notes on this process.)
- Reduce the mixer speed to low and add the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Mix just until the dough comes together, no longer than 1 minute.
- (Do not walk away from the machine during this step, or you will risk overmixing the dough.)
- Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula.
- Still on low speed, add the chocolate crumbs and mix just until incorporated, about 30 seconds.
- Using a 2 3/4-ounce ice cream scoop (or a 1/3-cup measure), portion out the dough onto a parchment-lined sheet pan.
- Pat the tops of the cookie dough domes flat.
- Wrap the sheet pan tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 1 week.
- Do not bake your cookies from room temperaturethey will not bake properly.
- Heat the oven to 375F.
- Arrange the chilled dough a minimum of 4 inches apart on parchment- or Silpat-lined sheet pans.
- Bake for 18 minutes.
- The cookies will puff, crackle, and spread.
- Its tough (kind of impossible) to gauge if a cookie that is this dark with chocolate is done.
- If after 18 minutes, the cookies still seem doughy in the center, give them another 1 minute in the oven, but not more.
- Cool the cookies completely on the sheet pans before transferring to a plate or an airtight container for storage.
- At room temp, the cookies will keep fresh for 5 days; in the freezer, they will keep for 1 month.
