Tuesdays with Dorie: Chocolate Chunkers

This week's recipe on page 70 from Baking: From my home to yours: Chocolate Chunkers has been chosen by Claudia from Fool for Food .

To keep the entry short: These are my cookies. Together with a glass of milk they are a complete meal. I followed Dories advice and shopped chocolate by hand, but I am of different opinion about the chocoloate. Excellent - and also expensive - chocolate I prefer to enjoy pure in small quantities.

I used chocolate with 75 % cocoa solids instead of unsweetened chocolate, for the bittersweet I used chocolate with 50 % cocoa solids and for the semisweet I used chocolate with 35 % cocoa solids. I substituted the raisins with dried apricots.

I'll definitely make these Chocolate Chunkers again!

BTW: Today my husband and celebrate 25 years "War and Peace", I am in a hurry!

For the recipe visit Claudia from Fool for Food and for more Chocolate Chunkers visit the blogroll at the Tuesday's With Dorie website.

Herzlichen Glückwunsch, auf weitere 25 Jahre! Die Cookies sehen in der Tat lecker aus, sind garantiert auch mein Fall :-)

Auch von mir herzlichen Glückwunsch zu den 25 Jahren und alles Liebe und Gute für noch ganz viele weitere!! Da fehlt uns Leuten vom Deich noch ein klitzekleines Stückchen zu.....-)
Und die Cookies - ganz klar: sehen oberlecker aus!

I agree about savoring good chocolate in small amounts, I think this would have been too much for me. I do really like the idea of apricot, though. Have a happy day with the husband!

Congratulations on 25 years! And I'm glad you liked the cookies - they are the only Dorie cookies I've made so far that I make again and again!

Sivie (guest) - 2008/09/16 19:55

Herzlichen Glückwunsch auch von hier. Uns fehlt da noch ein größeres Eckchen. Die Cookies sehen schön schokoladig aus.

I agree Ulrike, too much of a good thing is just as bad as... not enough.
I thought the chunkers were way too rich and too expensive to make for everyday treats... perhaps better for Holidays or presents.
Anyways... yours still look delish!

Marcie (guest) - 2008/09/16 20:29

es ist schokoladig - ich WILL es ;-)

Caitlin (guest) - 2008/09/16 20:34

Happy 25th anniversary! Quite an exciting milestone, so I hope you have something special planned :) Glad you liked the cookies so much!

Congratulations on 25 years! I bet they were great with apricots. That is how I am trying them next time...and there will be a next time.

Di (guest) - 2008/09/16 21:51

Happy anniversary! May you have many more wonderful years together. And great looking cookies. =)

Erin (guest) - 2008/09/17 03:45

Those look so gorgeous as always, but I do agree about the pricey chocolate. It almost felt sacrilegious to melt and chop the good stuff up.

Kalyn (guest) - 2008/09/17 04:30

Congratulations!

Congrats on the 25 years. I do think you look entirely too young to have been married that long though!

food librarian (guest) - 2008/09/17 06:19

Great cookies and Happy Happy Anniversary!!!

Happy belated Anniversary to you and your husband! The cookies look wonderful!

arfi (guest) - 2008/09/18 04:36

OMG, Ulrike! I've been wanting to make double-triple choco cookies... now they're here... right before my eyes (and I'm fasting!). *droooollll*

Sivie (guest) - 2008/09/19 20:37

Da wäre ich nie drauf gekommen. Danke auch für die Zutatenliste. Mit Gramm-Angaben und in deutsch. Du bist ein Schatz. ;-D

ostwestwind - 2008/09/19 20:51

Gern geschehen,

ich rechne jedes Rezept in Gramm um, auch wenn da so krumme Zahlen 'rauskommen. Aber mit 45 g Butter und 110 g Pecannüüsen wird es auch gehen, bei dem Kakaopulver bin ich da nicht so sicher ;-)

Barbara (guest) - 2008/09/19 21:46

Lovely cookies -- and hope you had a Happy Anniversary! Congratulations on 25 years together. That is quite an achievement!
