“Death By Chocolate” Fudge Cookies

Jump to recipe

Friends.

These cookies are seriously chocolatey. I’m talking more chocolatey than my double chocolate cookies. So chocolatey you probably will be able to showcase your self-control by only eating one. And let’s be serious, most people don’t stop at just one cookie; at least the people I hang out with don’t.

You can all thank the Blazers new beat writer, Jabari Young, for these cookies. We were having a little Twitter chat (as you do in 2014) and I said I would make him cookies to welcome him to Portland. He asked for some fudge cookies and this recipe was born! I met him at his office and sent him on the Blazers road trip with a bag of cookies.

Because no road trip is complete without cookies. We’re basically best friends now.

I’d never made fudge cookies before and I don’t think I’d eaten one either. I just figured it had to be the most chocolate-filled cookie I’d ever made. I loosely based the recipe on those double chocolate cookies and went to work.

Lots of chocolate, some espresso powder to really bring out the chocolate flavour, a little vanilla for sweetness and some adorable polka-dotted parchment paper made these cookies little chocolate dreams. {Cute parchment paper is optional, plain ol’ white/brown parchment is totally acceptable :)}

These cookies have the seal of approval from my most trusted taste-testers: my family, two Taylors and Zach. I’m sure later today they’ll also have Mary’s seal of approval, given that she’s the ultimate chocaholic.

So here ya are. Make them, love them, and try not to die of chocolate overload 🙂

Muffin time! I really love a good muffin. It probably comes from my…ambivalence…about frosting. Don’t get me wrong, cakes and cupcakes covered in frosting have their place in the world, I just prefer muffins filled with fruit and just a little chocolate. Blackberries and chocolate […]
