Our Cookbook Blog

Our Cookbook ~ What We Cook, is a compilation of every recipe we (Janice and Carissa) cook - recipes from our cookbook collections, our recipe boxes, and our heads! We set up this blog for friends and family who have our cookbook to let them see pictures we post of the recipes in the book, and also for us to note any corrections, revisions, or additions to What We Cook. We encourage people who are cooking our recipes to let us know how the recipes turn out and any suggestions they might want to make.

In addition, we will be sharing some of our new recipes (along with pictures) that are not in our cookbook. We hope you will help us out and test recipes and give us your comments.

Outrageous Chocolate Cookies ~ page 213

Need Chocolate for Valentine's Day?
These cookies are for the kind of people that just can't get enough chocolate. Do not serve these to those kinds of people (like my hubby) who can take or leave chocolate--this cookie will put them over their limit. But for me, I love, love, love these scrumptious cookies!
This is the time to hunt down the best dark chocolate you can find.
The dark chocolate and butter are melted in the microwave.
The chocolate mixture is stirred into the beaten egg mixture, then the dry ingredients blended in--very easy!
To this chocolate batter, you add more chocolate chips or chunks!
I put my cookie dough in the fridge, then baked the cookies the next day; this made kind of round cookie balls. If you bake them right after mixing them however, your cookie will be flatter, which works just as well, they will just look different. I do it whichever way is most convenient at the time. If you need something very chocolatey for Valentines Day--this outrageous chocolate cookie will meet your needs!
