CHOCOLATE COOKIES WITH WHITE CHOCOLATE AND CHERRIES



Chocolate Cookies With White Chocolate and Cherries image

Brownielike and soft-centered, these fudgy cookies are packed with dried cherries, nuts and chocolate chips. Feel free to substitute your favorite nuts and dried fruit for pecans and cherries, or leave them out entirely and add more chocolate chips (no one ever objects to more chocolate). Be sure to use bittersweet chocolate, or the cookies may end up cloying. The higher the percentage of cocoa solids in your chocolate, the less sweet it will be.

Provided by Melissa Clark

Categories     cookies and bars, dessert

Time 45m

Yield About 2 dozen cookies

Number Of Ingredients 14

8 ounces/227 grams bittersweet chocolate, 60 percent to 72 percent cocoa solids, chopped
6 tablespoons/85 grams unsalted butter, cut into cubes
1/3 cup/42 grams all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon/7 grams unsweetened cocoa powder, either Dutch-process or natural
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
2 large eggs, at room temperature
3/4 cup/150 grams granulated sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/3 cup/56 grams white chocolate chunks or chips
1/3 cup/56 grams bittersweet chocolate chunks or chips
1/3 cup/60 grams dried cherries
1/3 cup/42 grams pecan halves
Flaky sea salt, for topping (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees and lightly grease 2 or 3 baking sheets.
  • In a heavy saucepan set over low heat, melt chocolate and butter over low heat, stirring constantly. (Make sure to scrape sides and bottom of pan to prevent scorching.) Once melted, remove from heat, stir well and set aside to cool slightly. (You can also melt the butter and chocolate together in the microwave on low heat.)
  • In a small bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt.
  • In a large bowl, using an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat eggs and sugar until mixture is pale and very fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in vanilla extract. Scrape melted chocolate into egg foam and beat until just incorporated, scraping down sides of mixer bowl with a rubber spatula. Beat in flour mixture until no traces of flour remain, scraping sides of mixer bowl with spatula.
  • Using a spatula, fold in chips, cherries and nuts. Drop scant tablespoons of batter, 2 inches apart, onto prepared baking sheets. Sprinkle with sea salt if you like. Bake until slightly risen and a thin crackling crust forms on the tops of cookies, 9 to 13 minutes, depending on size. Do not overbake; the cookies can dry out.
  • Using a metal spatula, immediately transfer hot cookies to a wire rack. Let cool completely before serving.

Time 1h15m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
1 egg
2 to 3 ounces water
Dash salt
Butter
1 ounce diced ham
2 ounces Swiss cheese
3 eggs
2 cups half-and-half
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the pastry: Combine the flour and the salt on your work table. Add the butter and work it into the flour until the consistency is coarse. Stir and work in the egg and the water until the dough becomes a ball. Coat the work surface with a little flour and let the dough rest for at least 5 minutes.
  • For the quiche: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9-inch pie dish. Spread the pastry out to cover the bottom and sides with your fingers (use flour to help, push dough from middle to sides of dish). Let the pastry stand a bit higher than the dish edge. Bake the pastry for 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven before the pastry shrinks, (adjust sides if needed). Place the ham and cheese in the pan. In the meantime, beat the eggs and half-and-half with a fork in a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Pour the egg mixture into the pan and bake for 30 minutes, until the center is firm. Serve warm with a salad, if desired.
