Robert's Chocolate Cookies

Robert's Chocolate Cookies

As far as double chocolate chip cookies go, there are some excellent formulas in Cookies and Brownies. I'd be hard pressed to pick a favorite between Alice's Double Chocolate Chip Cookies, Chocolate Decadence, and these. In the introduction to this recipe, she writes:


Chocolate Decadence Cookies

Chocolate Decadence Cookies

Chocolate Decadence cookies are another brownie-cum-flourless cookie offering that's loaded with nuts, chocolate chips and chocolate chunks. There are some notable differences between this and Robert's Chocolate Cookies when they're baked, even though on the surface they may appear very similar.

A few notes about this recipe:

  • The dough is wet like brownie batter. I had to wrap it and freeze it before I could bake with it because it was so loose.


Almond Biscotti

Almond Biscotti

No cookie book would be complete without an almond biscotti recipe, and this one does the genre justice. Perfect for eating fresh or storing longer term in the freezer, almond biscotti make a solid cookie exchange offering. Rum and almond extract make appearances here too, with lingering tropical results.

A few notes about this recipe:

  • Rather than use 2 T amaretto, I substituted 2 T Cruzan Blackstrap Rum and 1 tsp almond extract. The blackstrap rum has an even stronger caramel flavor than regular spiced rum.
