Double Chocolate Chunk Cookies
These Double Chocolate Chunk Cookies are the best!
They are soft and light but yet maintain that bit of crunch around the edges.
The cookies do not fall apart. Even when you indulge yourself to dunk in a cold glass of water.
I use Nestle Toll House brand cocoa because it goes so well with their semi-sweet chocolate chunks. The coca flavors don’t compete or give off a bitter after taste.
The rest of this recipe is simply their famous Toll House Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe.
These are the INGREDIENTS You will need:
- 2 Cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 Cup NESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE® Baking Cocoa or similar

- Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in chunks.

I have been making these Double Chocolate Chunk Cookies for years now right along side my traditional chocolate chip cookies.
The image of the chocolate cookies intertwined with the chocolate chip cookie makes for a beautiful display on your dessert table.
Just imagine. A tall plate of mixed fudges on top. Then surrounding that platter, the table filled with all your Holiday baking favorites.
Cookies, bars, slices of pie and these cookies overflow the table. Enough to brighten anyones day.
Strategically place beverage containers of your favorite hot and cold selections sit on the corners of the display.
And there they are. Next to the milk your Double Chocolate Chunk Cookies are waiting to be chosen.
The only dilemma is this. Which do you choose first?
Well, in my home the answer is obvious. The Chocolate Chunk Cookies!

Sounds like these cookies have it all. Chocolate…soft cookie with a crunchy edge. Yum. They look like the muffin tops that were popular among the gang on the Jerry Seinfeld show.
