Recipe tip:
Choose the highest quality cooking chocolate you can find – it will make all the difference! Cooking chocolate is formulated specifically for all the heating and cooling that baking entails and is far less likely to go awry than regular chocolate.
Storage:
Cookies will keep in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
