These cookies are an absolute favorite of my husband’s and one of the very earliest contributions to Chocoholic Anonymous. The first time I ever made them he dubbed them “crack cookies”, but I thought that probably wasn’t the most appropriate name to give them. I’m sure he still thinks...

This recipe has a bit of an interesting history. When I first launched Chocoholic Anonymous, the recipe management tool I was using at the time defaulted to allowing registered members of my site to submit their own recipes. I was unaware of this setting and it had not been...

Jacques Torres is a very well know pastry chef and chocolatier, so you know that a chocolate cookie recipe of his creation is going to be good. This is certainly no exception, the very slight changes I made to the recipe did not alter the overall flavor profile or...
