Loaded Double Belgian Chocolate Cookies
Makes about 40 cookies using a 4.5 cm ice cream scoop
Ingredients:
- 227 g unsalted butter at room temperature
- 200 g brown sugar
- 100 g granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 10 mL pure vanilla extract
- 360 g all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ tsp salt
- 150 g semi-sweet chocolate, chopped into chunks (chocolate chips work too)
- 150 g milk chocolate chips
- 50 g Skore bits
- 100 g of dried, unsweetened cranberries or dried cherries
Directions:
- Cream the butter and the sugars together until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time until well incorporated, add the vanilla.
- Sift the flour, baking soda and salt together and add to the butter mixture to form a batter.
- Fold in the inclusions (reserving a small amount to add after the cookies come out of the oven for presentation, if desired).
- Bake in a pre-heated 350° F oven for 12-15 minutes or until the cookies are slightly golden at the bottom.
- Add the remaining inclusions, if desired and allow to cool completely on a cooling rack.
Notes:
- I used a 4.5 cm releasing ice cream scoop, if you use the slightly smaller one, you will likely get about 60 cookies.
- To help with portion control, I generally freeze the raw batter in scoops on a cookie sheet and bake as needed, 1 to 2 at a time (it drives JT crazy but he is grateful for the portion control).
Every (delicious) thing but the kitchen sink! GREG

Oh these cookies are loaded indeed! While I’m more a person who prefers less sweet cookies, I won’t be able to resist these bad guys! 🙂 Love the addition of toffee bits.

Considering how loaded these cookies are, I’m sure JT doesn’t complain too much about the portion control issue. 😊
