Bittersweet Decadent Cookies

These decadent cookies are crunchy on the outside however they have a nice gooey inside.

A tip from the creator Alice Medrich “In order to achieve the gooey texture with a balanced flavour pay attention to the amount of chocolate vis-a-vis the specific cacao percentages called for in the recipe and the sugar adjustment.”

Like Alice I like to chop the chunks of chocolate required in the second part of the recipe from a bar of bittersweet with 70% up to 80% cacao for a more deep contrast to the flavour and sweetness of the batter.

Once the batter is is ready work quickly while the batter is soft to get them onto your trays as the batter stiffens very quickly making it hard to work with.

Thanks again to Alice for the recipe.
