What is double chocolate chip cookie? Well, double chocolate chip cookies provide more chocolate flavor in choco chip cookies with the addition of cocoa powder along with extra chocolate chips.
Where do we add these extra choco chips?
Initially, while preparing the cookie dough chocolate chips are added and later in raw cookie we add some more choco chips to add extra chocolate flavor.
That’s the reason these are the most popular cookies among kids. You can bake them as return gifts during birthday parties and of course during Christmas celebrationsπ²π.
One more interesting thing I want to share here – have you ever tasted warm cookies πͺπͺ? Out of the world!!
When I was baking these cookies I had finished my lunch. Generally, I do not eat anything after lunch for minimum 3 hours. But when these cookies were cooling down, I couldn’t stop myself from tasting a tiny bit. I broke 1/4th piece of a cookie while it was still warm. It tasted so wonderful that I gobbled the rest of the pieces and came out of the kitchen with one more cookie in my hand. For second cookie I convinced myself that after some time these cookies will cool down completely and this heavenly taste will not be revived…Lol π π π
How much we fool ourselves but that’s the magic of warm double chocolate chip cookies!!!
Before you start collecting ingredients for the recipe, please go through the post where I have tried to address a few doubts regarding cookie baking… Basics of baking β Cookies (Tips and tricks on how to bake cookies)
There are a few more posts for cookies in the blog. If interested, you can take a look there also…Wheat flour cookies with Jaggery
Nankhatai (Cookies with clarified butter)
Recipe credit: https://www.tarladalal.com, though I have done a few changes in the original recipe.
Ingredients:
Maida (all purpose flour)
1 cup minus 1 tbsp
Powdered sugar 6 tbsp
Cocoa powder 2 tbsp
Baking soda 1 tsp
Baking powder 1/2 tsp
Choco chips 3 tbsp
Butter 5 tbsp (75.8 gm)
Vanilla essence 1/2 tsp
Milk 1-2 tsp (optional)
Extra chocolate chips
Process :
Take butter (should be firm but not cold) in a bowl and cream it.
Add vanilla extract/essence and powdered sugar in creamed butter and mix it nicely.
Add rest of the ingredients, except milk and chocolate chips.
When everything is mixed, add 3 tbsp chocolate chips and if you find it difficult to bind the dough, add milk carefully – 1 tsp at a time.
Divide the dough in same size balls.
Roll these balls to make them smooth and press them from one side in a bowl of chocolate chips.
Arrange these cookies by giving some gap in the ready baking tray. Bake them for 20/25 minutes at 175 degrees.
Cookies will be slightly firm but delicate and soft while shifting them to cooling rack after baking.
Donβt worry, carefully shift them to cooling rack. Once cookies cool down completely, they will become firm.
But even after cooling down if you still feel that cookies are soft and you really like crunch in your cookies, then just bake them one more time at 150 degrees for 15 minutes and you will get crispy cookies!!!
Wow ! They look scrumptious π Deeksha. I love your description, I feel like making soon and tasting.π
Prashanti, thank you very much π π
Chocolate cookies are always welcomed by family members, so any time you can give yourself this treatπππ
Yummy
Thank you very much π
Love these perfectly baked cookies! I never thought of weighing dough for each cookie, now I learnt that it ensures uniform baking.
Thank you very much Megala π
I used to sell cookies so weighing helped me a lot in deciding the total weight. It takes our extra time, but as you said, it helps a lot in even baking.
They look so yum Deeksha. Reading your post, I can feel the delicious aroma wafting from your oven . π€
Radhika, thank you so much π π
And you are so right!! As soon as baking time is about to get over, more and more chocolate aroma start wafting out of the oven!!
Yum…these are making me hungry!
Thank you so much ππ€
Warm cookies? Oh yes! π
I have never weighed the dough either, but that will give a uniform size and baking time. Great idea. π
Thank you so much Lynette π
I am glad you too agreed with the wonderful taste of warm cookiesβΊοΈβΊοΈ
They both look and sound very delicious, Deeksha π
One for trying.

Perfect cookies for coming Christmas π looks though damn tempting π
Thank you so much Jyo ππ
YUMMMMMM!!!! Oh my goodness, Dee, you come up with the most delicious recipes. How I wish I could dive right through and eat these cookies, allergies or not.
Amy, its a delight to see your lovely ,sweet appreciation but my heart sinks that you can’t have any sweet during this festive season. Well, life is not all about sugar, isn’t it…Salty things add spice in life..and spray a little bit of pepper, life becomes wonderful!!!!
I can eat cinnamon which I do a lot and I do eat salty pretzels …. not supposed to but I can get away with it. I could dive into a cake and not come up for air …. there are times my body craves sugar! I miss it! Yet, my health is too important as I tug at getting it back!
ππππ€
Awesome cookies Deeksha! π
Thank you very much Suniππ
Looks super yummy. I will try the whole wheat jaggery version as I don’t use maida.
Thanks!
I agree, with healthy ingredients munching is guilt free!
Wow looks absolutely ravishing, Deeksha and thank you so much for this wonderful presentation of chocolate cookies.
Kamal, thank you so much for pointing out the presentation part ππ
Learning good photography is my dream. Hopefully one day I will be able to click some nice pictures.
So nice, Deeksha and it is always nice to learn new new things and what you love. I really liked your photos and of course your awesome recipes. Welcome dear.
You are too generous and kind with appreciation Kamal π
I am truly humbled ππ
Thank you so much dear. Keep doing what you like. You know only after I joined WordPress I realized that I too could write poems which I was when I was young and that is why I put few of my poems and compiled a beautiful poetry book all with the help of my son and daughter. So do what you like.
I love reading your prose and poetry both. The best part about your writing is that it is up to the point and it delivers the message in the most simplest form. You are a blessed father with wonderful kids who are your support and guidance with your hobbies.
Once again thank you so much for your lovely motivation Kamal.
Have a wonderful weekend!
You are a gifted and creative cook.
Cindy, You are a wonderful human being. Not only you are such a wonderful photographer, but so modest.
I am truly humbled and will be trying to learn to keep my feet grounded.ππ
Yes! Warm cookies! The best ever!
I always like to eat cookies warm. Sometimes I heat up cookies and pies all the time… haha!
Your kitchen is amazing. Cookies look just like miracle. Enjoy, dear Deeksha~ ~
Oscar, I always warm up a little bit my sponge cake, but never did for cookies. Only after baking I eat them warm. You gave me a wonderful Idea to warm cookies also!!! Thank you so much and I hope your holidays are going on wonderful with festive season in the air!!
