as i am not a fan of the giant cookie i used a 1 1/2" cookie scoop and dropped 45 balls; i lightly pressed them with a fork and cooked for 9 min. on an air bake cookie sheet with parchment. they were nice and moist in the middle. i used 24 nuggets,and the next batch i make i will use semi sweet chocolate rather than the bitter sweet as the taste is just a bit strong for my liking.
