Ингредиенты
- 180 ml (¾ cup) dried cherries (or cranberries), coarsely chopped
- 430 ml (1 ¾ cups) unbleached all-purpose flour
- 60 ml (¼ cup) cocoa powder
- 2.5 ml (½ tsp) baking soda
- 1 ml (¼ tsp) salt
- 180 ml (¾ cup) unsalted butter, softened
- 250 ml (1 cup) brown sugar
- 30 ml (2 tbsp) corn syrup
- 2 eggs
- 250 ml (1 cup) dark chocolate, coarsely chopped (6 oz/170 g)
- 125 ml (½ cup) white chocolate, coarsely chopped (3 oz/90 g)
Инструкция
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
- In a bowl, soak the cherries in the hot water for 15 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- In another bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
- In a third bowl, cream the butter with the brown sugar and corn syrup. Add the eggs and beat until smooth. With a spatula, fold in the dry ingredients, chocolates and cherries.
- With a small 30 ml (2 tbsp) ice cream scoop, form dough balls and place on the baking sheet. Freeze for 4 hours. Place the frozen cookie dough in a sealable plastic bag and keep in the freezer until ready to bake.
- With the rack in the middle position, preheat the oven to 180 °C (350 °F). Place eight cookie dough balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper (or a silicone mat).
- Bake for about 12 minutes or until the cookies are cooked on the edges but still very soft in the centre. Let cool on the baking sheet before removing.
