Up until now I’ve never made a stuffed cookie. It was only after I saw Jaime of My Baking Addiction’s Rolo Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookie that I fell in love with the idea of a stuffed cookie.

And since I had some left over filling from my German Chocolate Cake and being one who hates to waste, this was the perfect solution—inspiration meets frugalness.

Going for a two-fer baking session, I was also testing a new recipe of my own for chocolate cookies. So there I was anxiously standing in front of the oven, flipping the light on and off and crossing my fingers the cookies were not spreading into flat discs, or worse, explode into a messy disaster.

Tender and chewy these cookies are a mid-point between a crisp cookie and a soft brownie.  Not only are these awesome-ly (uh, yes, a real word in my kitchen) good they smell delish while baking. In fact, so much so, I was able to bribe my little guy into quiet submission for the 12 minutes they took to bake.

Call me terrible, I call it efficient. Twelve minutes was all I needed to throw the dishes into the dishwasher and get out the glasses of milk and napkins for the taste testing.

Verdict: My family LURVED these bad boys(or girls, if you are going to get PC on me) and so did I. I love the taste, texture, and most of all I love that these Double Down Chocolate Chunk Cookies are the kind of cookie that can rival any top notch bakery.

I’m sure you’ve noticed by now I love chocolate. In fact, I’m guessing that a third of my posts are chocolate or chocolate related. The thing is chocolate is versatile to work with and that’s why its one of my favorite flavors to bake with. It does well alone and compliments almost anything it’s paired with. . . like cayenne.

Ah, yes a test recipe gone right.  And boy is it ever right. I love these Chocolate Cayenne Wafers, so I had to test them on my very picky husband whose palate tends to veer towards the less adventurous. Continue reading Chocolate Cayenne Wafer Cookies
