Using canola oil instead of butter slashes sat fat, while switching to whole whole wheat flour, plus adding oats, doubles the fiber. The result: a crunchy cookie with a chewy center. I found this recipe in Prevention magazine. I have not tried this recipe, but I'm posting it for safe keeping.

CHUNKY CHOCOLATE COOKIES



CHUNKY CHOCOLATE COOKIES image

Categories     Cookies

Yield 48 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 package Duncan Hines Moist Deluxe Dark Chocolate Fudge Cake Mix
2 Large Eggs
1/2 cup butter or margarine melted
1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts

Steps:

  • Place cake mix, eggs, melted butter, brown sugar and vanilla extract in large bowl. Stir with spoon until thoroughly blended. Stir in chocolate chips and pecans. Drop by tablespoonfuls onto greased baking sheets. Bake at 350 for 12 minutes for chewy cookies or 14 minutes for crisp cookies.

Tips:

  • Softened Butter: Use room temperature butter to ensure that your cookies spread properly. Cold butter will make the cookies dense and hard.
  • Chilling the Dough: Chilling the cookie dough before baking helps to prevent the cookies from spreading too much and keeps the chocolate chunks from melting too quickly.
  • Use High-Quality Chocolate: The chocolate is the star of these cookies, so use a good quality chocolate that you enjoy the taste of. You can use dark, milk, or white chocolate, or a combination of all three.
  • Don't Overmix the Dough: Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the Cookies Until the Edges Are Golden Brown: The centers of the cookies should still be slightly soft when you take them out of the oven. They will continue to set as they cool.

Conclusion:

These chunky chocolate cookies are the perfect treat for any chocolate lover. They're soft and chewy with a rich chocolate flavor. The addition of chocolate chunks makes them extra special. These cookies are sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
