Bakery Style Chocolate Cookies
Bakery Style Chocolate Cookies are big, soft, chewy, and ridiculously rich! These chocolate-loaded cookies have gooey, thick centers and slightly crisp edges. After years of being disappointed with fairly lackluster chocolate cookies (that weren’t rich/flavorful enough or too dry), I worked on and published my favorite Chocolate Cookies recipe. Those cookies are a total chocolate lover’s dream and a huge favorite at my home.
Unfortunately, though, that recipe doesn’t translate well to large bakery-style sized cookies; in fact, they work best when rolled into fairly small (1 tablespoon-sized) cookies. And since bakery-style and bakery-sized cookies are all the rage these days, I knew it was time to get back to the drawing board!
After a few months of testing, I’m so excited and thrilled to share this recipe — big, bakery-style chocolate cookies that are moist, rich, and loaded with chocolate. And when I say big, I mean, big. Each cookie is 4 ounces in size!
