Description

When you crack these cookies open, still warm, you get rich, almost brownie like texture. And then they are studded with melting chocolate chips, and little sour bites of dried cranberries which look like little red jewels nestled in the chocolate.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Butter
  • 2 cups Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla
  • 2 whole Eggs
  • 1-½ cup Flour
  • 1-½ cup Good Quality Cocoa Powder
  • ½ teaspoons Salt
  • 2 teaspoons Baking Soda
  • 16 ounces, weight Chocolate Chips
  • 2 cups Dried Cranberries

Preparation

In the bowl of a standing mixer, beat together the butter and sugar until fluffy. Add the vanilla and then the eggs, and beat until well combined.

In a separate bowl, combine the flour, cocoa, salt and baking soda.

Add the dry ingredients to the creamed mixturel, and mix until just combined.

At the end, gently mix in the chocolate chips and the cranberries.

Scoop in rounded spoonfuls onto a silpat or parchment lined sheet pan.

Bake at 350 degrees F for 10-11 minutes.

Let cool and enjoy!

These cookies are absolutely delicious! It’s like eating mini brownies with chocolate chips. I tried them once and I can’t wait to bake them again!
