Seriously, folks.  Can we talk about cookies?

We’re not just talking any ‘ol cookies here.  We are talking GIANT chocolate cookies.  Think cookie meets brownie and they fall in love.

Inside these rich chocolate cookies, there are Heath bar toffee bits and toasted chopped walnuts.  Typically, I am not one to put nuts in cookies.  But these cookies?  I am delighted that I stepped out of my comfort zone.  They were perfect in every way.

I have had this recipe tucked away for a while now.  I found it while researching a blog for the Secret Recipe Club. It was a top contender at the time, but I ended up making something else.  I knew though, that these would get made in the not so distant future.  I am so happy I didn’t wait a minute longer.

Like I mentioned, these cookies are really big.  I mean, I am sure you could make them smaller, but for the effect, I made them as instructed.

Scooping out 1/4 cup of batter for each cookie.  I used an ice cream scoop and it worked perfectly.  Baked 6 cookies at a time on a silicone mat.

Instructions

  • Stir butter and chocolate together in a heat proof bowl over a pot of simmering water, or in a double boiler, until melted and smooth.

  • Leave on cookie sheets for about 5 minutes, then cool on wire racks.
  • Store in an airtight container.
