Madagascar Chocolate Cookies

I was sent  a care package of chocolate bars from Patric Chocolate. Along with it came Roasted Madagascar Cocoa Nibs, and a package of Madagascar Cocoa disks for hot chocolate.

Having recently discovered that I can no longer drink milk, I didn't want to waste the Hot Chocolate on soy milk. I also found a recipe for Cocoa Nib Cookies on Alan McClure's blog. I decided to blend them and make some super cookies with Madagascar cocoa.


Patric Chocolate Nib-Chip Cookies

Ingredients:

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp baking soda
½ lb unsalted butter (two sticks)
1 cup dark brown sugar
¾ cup white sugar
1 tsp real vanilla extract
1 egg
¾ cup Patric Chocolate’s Roasted Cacao Nibs
1 package of roughly chopped Patric Chocolate Hot Chocolate disks (about 3/4 cup)



My flour isn't pictured because it's a massive 25 pound bag that doesn't fit on my tiny counter tops. God Bless Costco. Also I only had light brown sugar which worked out fine but definitely use dark brown sugar if you have it.

Procedure:

1) Preheat oven to 375 F. Adjust oven
rack to middle position.

2) Combine flour, salt and baking
soda in bowl.

3) In a mixer cream the butter and mix in sugars.

4) Add the vanilla and egg to the
butter mixture and beat to combine.

5) Beat the flour mixture into the
butter mixture until just combined.

6) Stir in the Patric Chocolate Cacao
Nibs and chopped cocoa disks.

7) Refrigerate dough until cool and
stiff.

8) Drop by rounded teaspoons onto
a good quality baking sheet (thin black baking sheets are not good options).

9) Bake for about 10 minutes and remove from oven. After several
minutes remove to a rack to cool.
