I was inspired to make these cookies last year when we stopped for a snack while Christmas shopping. I changed a few things when I got home, and my Fudge Puddles became a favorite with my husband's family. -Kimarie Maassen, Avoca, Iowa

CHOCOLATE PUDDLE COOKIES



CHOCOLATE PUDDLE COOKIES image

Categories     Cookies     Chocolate

Yield 18 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 cups / 11 oz / 310 g walnut halves, toasted & cooled
4 cups / 1 lb / 453 g confectioner's (powdered) sugar
1/2 cup plus 3 tablespoons / 2 oz / 60 g unsweetened cocoa powder
scant 1/2 teaspoon fine grain sea salt
4 large egg whites, room temperature
1 tablespoon real, good-quality vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 320F / 160C degrees and position racks in the top and bottom third. Line three (preferably rimmed) baking sheets with parchment paper. Or you can bake in batches with fewer pans. Make sure your walnuts have cooled a bit, then chop coarsely and set aside. Sift together the confectioner's sugar, cocoa powder, and sea salt. Stir in the walnuts, then add the egg whites and vanilla. Stir until well combined. Spoon the batter onto the prepared sheets in mounds of about 2 tablespoons each, allowing for PLENTY of room between cookies. These cookies are like reverse Shrinky Dinks - they really expand. Don't try to get more than 6 cookies on each sheet, and try to avoid placing the batter too close to the edge of the pan. Bake until they puff up. The tops should get glossy, and then crack a bit - about 12 -15 minutes. Have faith, they look sad at first, then really blossom. You may want to rotate the pans top/bottom/back/front. Slide the cookies still on parchment onto a cooling rack, and let them cool completely. They will keep in an airtight for a couple days.

GLUTEN FREE CHOCOLATE PUDDLE COOKIES



Gluten Free Chocolate Puddle Cookies image

This gluten free cookies is crisp on the outside and very moist on the inside. The amount you toast your walnuts makes a difference on the final taste of the cookie. Lightly toasted creates a mild tasting cookie with nuts that could almost be mistaken for chocolate chips. Heavy roasting the nuts will create a more intense and nutty flavor. Both are good. As for baking time, be careful not to overbake or underbake. If you overbake, the cookie will be too crisp and if you underbake, the cookie will be difficult to lift because it will be floppy and crumbly. The original recipe said this would make 18 cookies (bake for 12-15 minutes), but I like more bite size cookies so I used a cookies scoop for a 60 count cookie batch.

Time 18m

Yield 60 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 cups walnut halves, toasted and cooled (alt measure 11 oz or 310g)
4 cups confectioners' sugar (powdered sugar, alt measure 1lb or 453g)
2 ounces unsweetened cocoa powder (alt measure 1/2 cup plus 3 tbs or 60g)
1/2 teaspoon salt (table or fine grained sea salt)
4 large egg whites, room temperature
1 tablespoon vanilla extract (real, good quality)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 320F / 160C degrees and position racks in the top and bottom third. Line three (preferably rimmed) cookie sheets with parchment paper. You could also bake in batches with fewer pans.
  • Make sure your nuts are cooled a bit, then coarsely chop and set aside. Sift together the confectioners sugar, cocoa powder, and salt. Stir in the walnuts, then add the egg whites and vanilla. Stir until well blended.
  • Use a cookies scoop for about 60 smaller uniform cookies (or spoon the batter onto the prepared cookie sheets in mounds of about 2 tablesoons each to create 18 larger cookies.) These cookies are like reverse Shrinky Dinks - they expand. For the smaller cookies, don't place more than 4 across the short side of your cookie sheet, and for the larger cookies, no more than 6 cookies per sheet. Also remember not to place the batter too close to the edge of the pan.
  • Bake until they puff up. The tops should get glossy, and then crack a bit. Bite size cookies will take 7-9 minutes and the large cookies 12-15 minutes depending on your oven. You may want to rotate the cookies top/bottom/front/back.
  • Slide the cookies still on parchment onto a cooling rack, and let them cool completely. They will keep in an airtight container for a couple of days.
  • Note: I noticed while making the cookies smaller, the batter dried out a bit while waiting for the batches to cook so the tops where not as glossy. Try covering the batter with a damp cloth between batches. It didn't change texture of flavor, just a bit of the appearance.

CHOCOLATE PUDDLE COOKIES

Came across this recipe in my mailbox this morning and it looked so scrumptious I just had to copy it and share it. The incredible thing about this cookie is that it requires no flour! Recipe & photo: Yummly.com

Provided by Ellen Bales

Categories     Cookies

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 c walnut halves, toasted & cooled
4 c powdered sugar
1/2 c plus 3 tbsp. unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 tsp fine grain sea salt
4 large egg whites, room temperature
1 Tbsp pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • 1. Chop the cooled walnuts and set aside. In a large bowl, combine the powdered sugar, cocoa powder, and sea salt. Stir in the walnuts.
  • 2. Add egg whites and vanilla. Stir until well combined.
  • 3. Spoon the batter onto baking sheets covered with parchment paper, in mounds of about 2 Tbsp. each with PLENTY of room between cookies. They will expand a lot. There should be no more than 6 cookies on each baking sheet.
  • 4. Place cookie sheets on oven racks in the top and bottom third of the oven, at 325 degrees. Bake until they puff up, about 12 - 15 minutes. The tops should be glossy and slightly cracked.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate. The better the chocolate, the better the cookies will taste. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies at a high temperature. This will help them develop a crispy exterior and a gooey interior.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before enjoying. This will allow the flavors to develop and the cookies to set.

Chocolate puddle cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. By following these tips, you can make perfect chocolate puddle cookies every time.
