Triple Chocolate Cookies
These are a true chocoholic’s cookie. They are essentially a cross between a brownie and a cookie, featuring a deep, dark chocolate flavor in the base cookie with layered dark, milk and white chocolate flavors coming from the abundance of chocolate chips folded into them. I adapted this recipe from As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.The Cookie and Biscuit Bible Giant Triple Chocolate Cookies recipe.
This adaptation dates back to before I had acquired a kitchen scale so the most obvious change is a conversion from weight to volume measurements. When translating the measurements from weight to volume many of them came across as seemingly odd amounts, like 7 tablespoons of butter or 1.35 cups of chocolate, so I adjusted them to amounts that made more sense to me when working with volumes. I added in espresso powder to enhance the chocolate in the base dough and I might have increased the amount of chocolate chips (all 3 varieties) just a smidge.
The final change I made was to scale down the size of the cookies – my version is no longer giant. I wanted cookies that were more reasonable portion sizes, especially when sharing with my kiddos. Of course, scaled down cookies also means a shorter bake time which means there are cookies ready to eat sooner! I used a #30 scoop, which is just shy of 2 1/2 tablespoons. If you would prefer the giant version, you’ll want to use a #16 or a #12 scoop. This will get you closer to 12 cookies and you’ll need to bake them for 12-15 minutes.
