Double Chocolate Chip Cookies are a real classic and this recipe will not disappoint – they are moist chewy and a wonderful treat for chocolate lovers everywhere!
My husband has a chocolate addiction. Â He says he can live without it, but I have my doubts. Â It’s his only vice (although he’ll tell you he doesn’t have any).
I was starting to suspect that every time I baked a muffin or cake, he secretly wished it was something chocolate. Â With that in mind, I decided to create the most chocolaty cookie I could. Â This was the end result. Â Needless to say, they did not disappoint!
If you like your cookies thicker and a bit more chewy, you can refrigerate the dough before baking anywhere from 1 hour – 1 day.

Mmm. Moist and chewy sounds very good! I have never met a man that loves chocolate that much, but I can imagine that these cookies will totally satisfy him!
Thank you Renee! They infidelity made my husband very happy! 🙂
Yum, looks very rich & decadent; my kind of cookie!
Do you think these could be baked in muffin tins so they are all the same size? Regular or mini?
Hi again. 🙂 You can use muffin tins, but only fill then about half way. You’ll have to keep an eye on them though as it will effect cooking times. Hope this helps.
