Directions
Sugar-Crusted Chocolate Cookies, A Jacques Torres recipe that makes a delicious, crumbly-textured cookie Dough is done in the food processor , I am glad to have a recipe involving chocolate from Jacques Torres!!! These are delicious sables, dense like shortbread I realized after I baked them (and read back over the recipe), I had made a huge error and forgotten the other 2 TBSP butter and only put in the 1/2 cup This made them a little harder to cut thinly (because I didn’t want them to break in half or crumble) after the chill time so mine were more like 1/2 inch thick used a really high quality, high fat Dutch process cocoa that I get at Penzey’s because I am sure that Jacques makes his own!!! (I still want his show to come back to Food Network so we can learn more about chocolate!!!!) We really enjoyed these cookies, I will definitely make these again with the other 2 TBSP butter so I can get them as close to Jacques’ as possible!!! Thanks for posting this great recipe!!
