I’ve been playing around with the best type of chocolate for cookie-making and, to my surprise, I actually prefer dark chocolate (around 50-60% cocoa solids) to my usual love— Lindt 70% cocoa solids. In cookies, I found my old faithful a bit too intense and rich. I hope I’m not going to get kicked out of the dark chocolate lovers club for admitting that.
1. Preheat oven to 150ºC (300ºF).
2. Using a stand mixer, beat butter and sugar on medium speed until the mixture is light and fluffy.
3. Add in egg and beat until well-combined.
4. Add the creamed butter to the flour and fold with a wooden spoon until the flour is just incorporated. Gently fold in the chocolate.
5. Using a teaspoon, scoop up little balls of dough about the size of a walnut. Place on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Make sure you leave enough space to allow your cookies to spread. I generally use 2 trays.
6. Place the first tray on the middle shelf of your oven and increase the heat to 200ºC (400ºF) or fan forced 180ºC (350ºF). Set your timer for 10 minutes and turn the tray after that. Continue to cook, checking every couple of minutes until the cookies are just golden. Depending on your cookie size and oven, they will take from about 13 to 18 minutes.
7. Remove and allow to cool on the tray. Repeat with the remaining mixture, allowing your oven to cool back down to about 150ºC (300ºF) before you start to bake again.
