Chocolate Chocolate Cookies
- FOR THE CHOCOLATE CRUMB:
- 2/3 cups Flour
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 1/2 cups Sugar
- 2/3 cups Cocoa Powder
- 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
- 6 Tablespoons Melted Butter
- FOR THE COOKIE DOUGH:
- 1 cup Butter, Room Temperature
- 1-1/2 cup Sugar
- 1/4 cups Glucose
- 1 whole Egg
- 1/4 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
- 2 ounces, weight 55% Chocolate, Melted
- 1-1/4 cup Bread Flour
- 3/4 cups Cocoa Powder
- 3/4 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 1/4 teaspoons Baking Soda
- 1-3/4 teaspoon Kosher Salt
- 1-1/4 cup Chocolate Crumb (Recipe Above)
- For the crumb:
- Preheat the oven to 300 F.
- Combine the flour, cornstarch, sugar, cocoa powder and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and mix on low speed until combined. Add the butter and mix on low until small clusters begin to form.
- Spread the clusters on a parchment- or Silpat-lined sheet pan. Bake for 20 minutes, breaking up the pieces as needed. The crumbs should still be slightly moist to the touch, they will harden as they cool.
- Remove pan from oven. Allow the crumbs to cool completely before using (or eating!). Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week at room temperature or up to 1 month in the fridge.
- For the cookie dough:
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, combine the butter, sugar and glucose and cream together on medium-high speed for 2 to 3 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, and add the egg, vanilla and melted chocolate, and beat for 7 to 8 minutes. The dough will have doubled in size and will be very fluffy with no streaks of fat.
- 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 the mixer 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 measuring cup), 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 temperature--they will not bake properly.
- When ready to bake the cookies, preheat the oven to 375 F.
- 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. 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 them 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.
- Cassie's Notes:
- I baked my cookies for exactly 18 minutes and they came out perfectly but watch in the last few minutes so that you don't overbake them.
- I followed the recipe exactly as written for these and we adored them. I wouldn't change anything for the next time that I make them.
