Preparation duration: 15 minutes

Cooking duration: 10 minutes

 

Ingredients:

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 cup unsweetened natural cocoa powder

1 tablespoon brewed coffee, optional but recommended (leftover from the morning brew okay)

2 teaspoons cornstarch

2 ounces (1/4 cup) brick-style cream cheese (lite brick-style is okay but don't use 'whipped' or 'spreadable')

1 large egg

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1 teaspoon instant espresso powder, optional but recommended

3/4 cup light brown sugar, packed

1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste

12 ounces (2 cups) semi-sweet chocolate chips

1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Equipment:

hand mixer

mixing bowl

stand mixer

baking sheet

oven

Cooking instruction summary:

To the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or large mixing bowl and electric mixer)add the butter, cream cheese, sugars, egg, optional coffee (doesn't make cookies taste like coffee, serves to enhance the chocolate flavor), vanilla, and beat on medium-high speed until well-creamed, light and fluffy, about 4 to 5 minutes. Stop, scrape down the sides of the bowl, and add the cocoa powder, optional espresso powder (doesn't make cookies taste like coffee, serves to enhance the chocolate flavor), and beat on medium-high speed until combined, 1 to 2 minutes. Stop, scrape down the sides of the bowl, and add theflour, cornstarch, baking soda, salt, and mix until just combined, about 1 minute. Add chocolate chips and beat on low speed until just combined, about 30 seconds. Using alarge cookie scoop, 1/4-cup measure, or your hands, form approximately 16 equal-sized mounds of dough, roll into balls, and flatten slightly. Tip - Strategically place a few chocolate chips right on top of each mound of dough by taking chips from the underside and adding them on top. Place mounds on a large plate or tray, cover with plasticwrap, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, up to 5 days. Do not bake with unchilled dough because cookies will bake thinner, flatter, and be more prone to spreading. Preheat oven to 350F, line a baking sheet with aSilpator spray with cooking spray. Place dough mounds on baking sheet, spaced at least 2 inches apart (I bake 8 cookies per sheet)and bake for about 10 minutes, or until edges have set and tops are just set, even if slightly undercooked or glossy in the center; don't overbake which is easy to do with chocolate cookies. Cookies firm up as they cool so pull them before you think you need to. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for about 10 minutes before serving. I let them cool on the baking sheet and don't use a rack. Cookies will keep airtight at room temperature for up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 6 months. Alternatively, unbaked cookie dough can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or in the freezer for up to 4 months, so consider baking only as many cookies as desired and save the remaining dough to be baked in the future when desired.

Food Joke

1. Nodding and looking at your watch would be deemed an acceptable response to "I love you." 2. Hallmark would make "Sorry, what was your name again?" cards. 3. When your girlfriend really needed to talk to you during the game, she would appear in a little box in the corner of the screen during a half time. 4. Breaking up would be a lot easier. A smack to the bum would pretty much do it. 5. Birth control would come in ale or lager. 6. The funniest guy in the office would get to be CEO. 7. "Sorry I'm late, but I got hammered last night" would be an acceptable excuse for tardiness. 8. It'd be considered harmless fun to gather 30 friends, put on horned helmets, and go pillage a nearby town. 9. Lifeguards could remove citizens from beaches for violating the "public ugliness" ordinance. 10. Tanks would be far easier to rent. 11. Instead of a beer belly, you'd get "beer biceps." 12. Instead of an expensive engagement ring, you could present your wife-to-be with a giant foam hand that said, "You're #1!" 13.

When a cop gave you a ticket, every smart-alec answer you responded with would actually reduce your fine. As in: Cop: "You know how fast you were going?" You: "All I know is, I was spilling my beer all over the place." Cop: "Nice one. That's $10 off." 21. Daisy Duke shorts would never again go out of style. 22.
