Double Dark-Chocolate Walnut Cookies
MAKE IT SHINE!
ADD YOUR PHOTO
These scrumptious cookies deliver the combination of flavors of dark-chocolate nut bark. The recipe calls for roughly chopped bar chocolate. If you prefer a less intense dark-chocolate flavor, try slightly less cocoa content. This is for true chocolate lovers only. LOL I got this recipe from a local magazine.

I needed to "veganize" some cookies for a customer and I made the necessary changes (not so many really) to this recipe--used vegan non-hydrogenated shortening in place of the butter and a very ripe banana in place of the egg. Also used vegan sugar (not conventionally milled)--otherwise followed directions (vegan chocolate is just good chocolate without added milk or egg products)---and this was a delicious cookie and a big hit with the vegans!!!! Thanks, Lainey!Reply

These are a chocoholic's dream come true. I used Lindt's Intense Dark Chocalate bars (70% cocoa)which are almost too bitter on their own. I reduced the cocoa to 1/4 cup and I think it was a wise choice. These will be on my holiday baking list from now on. Made for 1st Annual Holiday Tag Game. Thanks Lainey, this is worth more than 5 stars to me!Reply
