Outstanding Fudgy Chocolate Chunk Cookies

Occasionally, well more than occasionally, we crave something chocolate so I pulled these cookies from a Pinterest pin that’s been in my pile-‘o-pins forever.

These Fudgy Chocolate Chunk Cookies started out as a frosted cookie, but they’re so rich and delicious that I decided against the frosting.

You’ll remember the wonderful Flourless Fudgy Chocolate Cookies and Chewy Chocolate Cookies, and the many great chocolate chip cookie recipes I’ve posted, but these special cookies are one of the best! Rich, chewy and intensely chocolate, tender and perfect.

You want to slightly under bake these to get the chewiness. Think the best brownies you’ve ever had in chewy cookie form. Oh, and be sure and have enough cold milk standing by.

These cookies are indulgent, but you’re definitely worth it. Fudgy Chocolate Chunk Cookies are possibly the best cookie I’ve had in a very long time!

One more pic to make sure you can see how glorious these are…

Chewy, chocolaty, thick and indulgent cookies. The best chocolate cookie you'll ever have.

Ingredients

2 1/2 C. all-purpose flour
2/3 C. Dutch process cocoa
1 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
1 C. butter, softened
1 tsp. instant coffee granules
3/4 C. sugar
2/3 C. packed brown sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
2 tsp. evaporated milk
2 eggs
11.5 oz. semisweet chocolate chunks

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°. Prepare cookie sheets with parchment paper.
Combine the flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt in a bowl and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, mix butter, instant coffee granules, white sugar, and brown sugar until creamy. Add the vanilla and evaporated milk. Drop in eggs, one at a time, blending well.
Add the flour 1/2 cup at a time and beat until all ingredients are mixed in well. (Batter is thick.). Stir in the chocolate chunks.
Roll into tablespoon-sized balls and place 2" apart on the cookie sheets. Bake for 10-11 minutes. Cookie will be puffy, but will flatten upon cooling. Cool on cookie sheet while preparing the second cookie sheet, then move to a rack to cool completely.
Store in a tightly sealed container for up to 3 days. Like they'll last that long...

Notes

Tips and Stuff:

Batter will be very stiff. Don't refrigerate between batches.

Don't over bake. You want them to have chewy middles and a slightly crunchy rim.

Man, these cookies are terrific.

Flourless Fudgy Chocolate Cookies

September 2, 2017 by sblades Leave a Comment

You’re familiar with flourless chocolate cake from restaurants, right? It’s thick, soft, and fudgy cake that’s just heaven in a bowl. Well, these Flourless Fudgy Chocolate Cookies are a take off on that cake.

They’re a little crispy around the edges and awesomely chewy and fudgy in the middle. And I don’t use the word awesome willy-nilly (yes, I said willy-nilly)!

These are definitely for a chocoholic – sweet and full of cocoa and chocolate chips. Here’s my pudgy little fingers holding one of the cookies just out of the oven. You can see the gooey chocolate chips and fudgy center.

These chocolate cookies are not for the faint of heart. They are very sweet and are best served microwaved for 5 or 6 seconds with a side of cold milk or vanilla ice cream. The original recipe from MamaGourmand’s wonderful site called for 24 cookies (12 on each cookie sheet) and I misread it and thought it was supposed to be 12 cookies total.

I ended up splitting the difference and made 17 really big cookies. I recommend making them a little smaller so you won’t overdose on chocolate and sweetness.

These Flourless Fudgy Chocolate Cookies are wonderful and are also inadvertently gluten-free.

Chewy, fudgy, with that meringue crunch, and perfect for a snack or dessert. It takes a little muscle to mix them up since the batter is so thick, but they take very few ingredients that you probably have in your cabinet.
