Provided by Lynnda Cloutier

Categories     Cookies

Number Of Ingredients 15

2/3 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/8 teaspoons salt
1/2 cup raisins
2 tablespoons coffee liqueur
8 ounces semi sweet dark chocolate, coarsely chopped
1/4 cup butter
two large eggs
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup semi sweet dark chocolate chips
glaze:
3 ounces white chocolate
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes

Steps:

  • 1. for cookies, preheat the oven to 350°. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Mix the flour, baking powder, red pepper flakes, and salt in a small bowl. Heat the raisins and coffee liqueur in a small pan over low heat.
  • 2. Melt the chocolate with the butter in a double boiler over barely simmering water. Set aside to cool. Beat the eggs and sugar in a large bowl with electric mixer at high speed until very pale and creamy, about five minutes
  • 3. With mixer at medium speed, beat in the chocolate and vanilla. With mixer at low speed, beat in the mixed dry ingredients and then the raisin mixture and chocolate chips. Drop tablespoons of the dough 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until risen slightly, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet for five minutes. Transfer to wire racks and let cool completely. Glaze: melt the white chocolate and red pepper flakes in a double boiler over barely simmering water. Drizzle over the cooled cookies and let rest until set, about 30 minutes. Makes about 18

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate chips. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your cookies. Look for chips that are made with real chocolate and have a high percentage of cocoa solids.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies to spread less and hold their shape better.
  • Bake the cookies at a high temperature. This will help them to get crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before serving. This will allow the flavors to develop and the cookies to firm up.

These spicy chocolate chip cookies are the perfect combination of sweet and heat. They're sure to be a hit with your friends and family. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy-to-make cookie recipe, give these spicy chocolate chip cookies a try. You won't be disappointed!
