@markwyner those look yummy! Great idea to use the Trader Joe's chocolate bar. Those are so good.

@davidruffner so much.

The best advice I can give you as a true chocolate lover is to bake with the chocolate you like to eat!
In my café, I bake and prepare drinks with wonderful chocolates from a Columbian company (Luker).
Enjoy baking and eating cookies!

@markwyner where's the recipe ?

[markwyner@mas.to]

@Engelsbaeckerei thank you! That completely tracks with my experience here. I think this preferred chocolate improved the cookies. I guess I hadn’t thought about that, though. Yum!

@markwyner
Something that isn't great to begin with won't get better in the heat of the oven.
So, by using the chocolate you like to eat, when you bake cookies, you get a chocolate bar surrounded by cookie dough - what could be better than that?
May I ask how you made the dough? Were the cookies chewy on the inside and crisp on the outside (if that's what you aimed for)?

Some people asked me for a recipe. Here you go:

Vegan chocolate chip cookies are yummy. But baking without eggs is an art form. Fortunately, I now have a recipe that slays all the others. Chewy and delicious…

@Engelsbaeckerei great point about heat not changing that flavor.

I published the recipe :

The cookies were indeed chewy with a slight outer crisp. I believe two things were major factors in that. First, putting the dough in the fridge for about 15 min before baking. Second, bake time. It felt like every minute had an impact. Too long and they would lose the chewiness, too short and not quite firm enough. You would know more about that, though.

For the lazy or peckish, Farm Boy has a new box of chocolate chip cookies marked "plant-based", and I don't know what's in them but OH MAN they're good!

@DenOfEarth Glad to hear it.
