Big Flat Crinkly Chocolate Chunk Cookies
October 18, 2016 By Anna 3 Comments
There’s a restaurant here in Chicago called Beatrix that sells awesome chocolate chunk cookies. Well, “awesome” if you like big, flat crinkly chocolate chunk cookies that are very sweet, kind of dense and a little bend-y. They remind me of the unleavened large size version of Maida Heatter’s David’s Cookies recipe. I haven’t made an exact replica of the Beatrix cookies, but in trying to do so I came up with a version I like almost as much!
This recipe is one I make when Ghirardelli 60% “Twilight” bars or Dark Chocolate Lindt bars go on sale at Walgreen’s. The chocolate spreads and the cookies spread, so halfway through you have to kind of nudge…
