Wow! Okay I know what needs to be done to make this recipe perfect. After reading the disappointing reviews I made the following changes. In addition to the 1 ounce of semi sweet chocolate I added 1/3 cup of cocoa powder. I also reduced the chocolate chips to 1/2 cup. I refrigerated about 4 hours & baked at 350 for 12 minutes. I also did not grease the pan and the cookies came off great. These turned out perfect! Great sweetness nice and chocolately chewy and moist yet crispy.
I followed HEIDI's suggestion to add 1/3 cup of cocoa to the dough but I still added 1 cup of mini- chocolate chips. I cooked them 10.5 minutes and I was very pleased with the intense chocolate flavor and the chewy consistency.
We used to make these as kids, and this recipe was just what I was looking for! I did make a few modifications, though. I reduced the white sugar to 3/4 cup; omitted the chocolate chips and added 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder to the flour mixture instead; and then added 1/2 teaspoon instant espresso coffee powder to the flour mixture as well. I chilled the dough for 2 hours, but would refrigerate for more like 4 hours next time. They came out great and my family wanted more...Thanks for a great recipe!
I may have missed something in the other reviews but... this recipe seems to be missing some flour. I couldn't roll these cookies after leaving the dough in the refrigerator overnight. I am still waiting for my first batch to come out of the oven and it has been over 15 minutes - they just look goopy!
The only change I made was using 1 1/4 cups of chocolate chips instead of the bar chocolate and melted it all in with the butter. Turned out PERFECT! Delicious!
LOVED THIS! A very sweet cookie! I tripled the recipe and used Chocolate Chips instead of Semi Sweet Chocolate! My Kids loved these as well. I will definetly make again!
These were truly terrific! I also adjusted the recipe by adding cocoa powder to the cookies (1/3 cup) and I think it was a fantastic choice. I also made the cookies a little bigger than one inch after the first batch was a little too small. I cooked them for ten minutes and although they seemed way underdone they firmed up marvelously. They were the perfect chocolaty consistency. I was told "They're as good as Grandma's"! Great compliment!
These cookies are heavenly! Soft delicate and very chocolatey! I didn't change anything (which is rare) I have made similar cookies before but the addition of chocolate chips really puts this recipe ahead of the others.
Fantastic chocolate cookies! Made exactly as stated and i will definately make again!:)
