Recipe of the Month - Dulcey Double Chocolate Cookie

With most people spending extra time at home these days, we’ve decided to reintroduce the D’Andrews Recipe of the Month. This month, we are sharing a recipe that will certainly satisfy a chocolate craving!

Dulcey Double Chocolate Cookie

When owner and executive chef David Andrews wanted a double chocolate cookie for the bakery, he set out to create a recipe with 100% chocolate, that way the cookie would not be as dry as other recipes. Because there is so much chocolate in the cookie, it didn’t need much flour, so he was able to make it with gluten-free flour.

Dulcey Double Chocolate Cookie

4 TBSP Butter

¾ Cup White Sugar

¾ Cup Light Brown Sugar

1 tsp Espresso Powder

1 tsp Salt

1 TBSP Vanilla Extract

4 Whole Eggs

3 ⅓ Cups 100 % Chocolate

3 ⅔ Cups Gluten-Free Flour

2 ½ Cups Dulcey Valrhona Chocolate

Yield is around 17 cookies
