Ingredients

  • 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour 220 grams
  • ¾ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 14 tablespoons unsalted butter 200 grams
  • ½ cup packed light brown sugar 100 grams
  • ½ cup sugar 100 grams
  • 2 tablespoons light corn syrup or Lyle's Golden
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • ½ cup grated dark or bittersweet chocolate 30 grams
  • 1 ½ cup bittersweet chocolate morsels or use a mix of bittersweet and semisweet
  • 1 cup chopped toasted walnuts or pecans

Instructions

  • Sift or thoroughly stir together the flour, baking soda and salt; set aside.
  • Place butter in a microwave safe mixing bowl and melt on high for 1 minute. Add brown sugar and white sugar to hot butter and let it sit for a minute.
  • Alternatively, you can melt the butter in the microwave, pour it in the bowl of a stand mixer and add the sugar.
  • Using high speed of a handheld electric mixer (or the paddle attachment of a stand mixer), beat for about 3 minutes or until the mixture starts to become less shiny and somewhat lighter.
  • Using a mixing spoon, stir in syrup, vanilla and milk until thoroughly blended. Stir in flour mixture. Chill mixture for about 10 minutes. (If mixture is still warm grated chocolate will melt - I learned this the hard way).
  • Take it out of the refrigerator and stir in the grated chocolate and chocolate chips. Chill dough for another 30 minutes or more.
  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Drop 1 inch balls onto parchment paper, shape them into neat rounds, then flatten to about ¼ of an inch, spacing 2 inches apart.
  • Bake for 12-14 minutes or until edges become golden brown. Let cool on sheet for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a rack to cool and crisp.
  • (Note: if your oven runs hot, you will want to check these at 10 minutes).
