Triple Chocolate Cookies

These triple chocolate cookies are rich, fudgy and decadent. They are loaded with chocolate and ready in less than 30 minutes.

Hi guys! It’s Abeer here from Cakewhiz.com sharing a recipe for these decadent triple chocolate cookies. I am not even sure how young I was when I first started making these cookies with my Mom. Now, I bake a batch at least once a month and numerous batches for family and friends during the Holiday season.

These cookies are soft and fudgy. You almost feel like you are eating a brownie. These cookies are meant for chocoholics because with each bite, you get to experience major chocolate overload! The chocolate flavor in these cookies comes from: cocoa powder, chocolate chips and a chocolate candy in the center.

My favorite thing about these cookies is how you can modify them to your liking by substituting a few ingredients:

•  If you aren’t too fond of chocolate chips, use white chocolate chips or toffee chips or peanut butter chips.


•  Replace the chocolate square in the center with your favorite candy. Add a Rolo or caramel or peppermint patty or a mini Reese cup.


• Roll the cookie dough ball in granulated sugar to give these cookies a crunchy sugary topping.


• If you want to enhance the chocolate flavor even further, drizzle some melted chocolate on each cookie, once they have cooled down.

See what I mean…The possibilities are endless!

If you can’t get enough of chocolate either, you should totally check out some of my other chocolate cookies like these chocolate sugar cookies OR these chocolate thumbprint cookies!

Notes

- If the cookie dough is too soft and it’s difficult to roll into balls, chill the dough for 30 minutes, which will make it easier to handle.
- Leftovers can be stored in a sealed container or cookie jar at room temperature for up to 3 days (if they last that long…lol).
- The number of cookies you get from this recipe will vary, depending on how big or small you like your cookies as well as the size of the chocolate squares you use in the center. I used Dove chocolate and made 15 big cookies.
