Possibly because the wife and I made it a collaborative effort, or possibly because we put the effort in and researched a whole bunch of recipes, but this was hands-down-awesome-clown.
I'm actually not going to list the recipe here. Because I'm evil.
Muah hah hah ahh hah ha
No, seriously if you're interested I can send it your way, just give me your email address... but really this was just to boast at how awesome these cookies were.
So I took some lovely photos for all to see and be jealous.
I will say a few things about this recipe.
First, we browned the butter. Browning butter is a great way to get a tremendous amount of butter "flavour" without necessarily needing to use a large quantity of butter. Just don't burn the butter. :)
Also, parchment paper is a must-have. I don't make any baked goods without parchment liner, but cookies most definitely should be on parchment.
We used an actual Hershey's milk chocolate bar instead of semi-sweet bakers chocolate or chocolate chips. And it was delightful.
Anyway, swim in jealousy. Swim in until your hands get all pruney.
:)
