Muscovado Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipes

MUSCOVADO COCOA CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Line a 12-by-17-inch baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Into a medium bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter on medium speed until creamy. Add 2/3 cup of the sugar and beat until light in color and texture, about 3 minutes. Add the egg and vanilla extract and beat until the egg is fully absorbed and the mixture lightens in color, 1 minute more. Reduce the speed to low and gradually stir in the flour mixture just until combined (avoid over-mixing or the cookies will be dry!). Stir in the chocolate.
• Use a 1 tablespoon measuring spoon to portion the dough onto the prepared baking sheets- 12 cookies per sheet, evenly spaced (the cookies won't spread too much during baking). Freeze until the dough is solid, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, position a rack to the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Roll the dough balls in the remaining 1/3 cup sugar to coat completely.
• Bake the cookies just until they are slightly puffed and the edges can be lifted off the parchment with a fingertip, but the cookies look somewhat underdone and soft towards the center, 10 minutes, being careful not to over-bake. Cool the cookies completely on the baking sheet set over a wire rack. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.

MUSCOVADO CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, baking soda, and baking powder.In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together the butter, sugars, and vanilla extract on medium-high speed for 5 full minutes, or until lightened in texture and color. Add the egg and beat 1 minute more. Reduce the speed to low and stir in the dry ingredients. Stir in the chocolate chips. Cover the bowl and chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or up to overnight.When you're ready to bake, position the oven racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.Using a small ice cream scoop or 2 spoons, drop the dough by 2 tablespoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheets. Bake until the cookies are set enough on their perimeters so that you can lift the very edges with a fingertip, but still soft in the centers, 12 to 14 minutes- do not overbake. Let the cookies cool completely on the baking sheets.
