Categories     dessert

Time 1h30m

Yield 14 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 3/4 cups all purpose flour
1/3 cup good quality unsweetened Dutch-process cocoa powder
2 teaspoons of your favorite ground chile powder, such as ancho chile powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temp
1 cup packed dark brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup dark chocolate chunks
1/2 cup unsalted pepitas (shelled pumpkin seeds), lightly toasted

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, chile powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter on medium-high speed until light and creamy, about 1 minute. Add the brown and granulated sugar and beat until slightly fluffy, about 2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed. Add the egg and vanilla and beat until well combined.
  • Reduce the mixer speed to medium-low, add half the flour mixture, and beat until just combined, then add the remaining flour mixture and beat until the mixture just comes together, 1 to 2 minutes, being careful not to overmix. Add the chocolate chunks and pepitas and beat on low until just combined.
  • Use a 2-ounce ice cream scoop or a 1/4 cup measuring cup to scoop the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, making about 14 cookies total and leaving at least 2 inches between each cookie.
  • Bake until the edges of the cookies are crisp but the centers are still tender, about 15 minutes, rotating the baking sheets top to bottom and front to back halfway through the baking time. Remove from the oven, set the baking sheets on wire racks, and let the cookies cool completely on the pans. They should keep up to 5 days in an airtight container.

OATMEAL CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES



Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies image

These taste distinctly homemade: much smaller than giant, thick bakery-style disks and more delicate, with just enough buttery dough to bind the chocolate and oats. Mixing by hand turns out cookies that are crisp at the edges and tender in the centers. These can be mixed and baked in under an hour, but the dough balls also can be packed in an airtight container and refrigerated for up to 3 days, or frozen for up to a month. You can bake them from ice-cold, though they'll need a few more minutes to turn golden brown.

Categories     cookies and bars, dessert

Time 40m

Yield 2 to 3 dozen cookies

Number Of Ingredients 12

3/4 cup/100 grams all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
8 tablespoons/114 grams unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup/94 grams packed brown sugar
1/4 cup/59 grams granulated sugar
1 large egg, at room temperature
2 tablespoons heavy cream or milk
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups/134 grams old-fashioned rolled oats
1 cup/189 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup/63 grams chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Whisk the flour, baking soda and salt in a small bowl. Mix the butter and both sugars in a large bowl with a wooden spoon until creamy. Beat in the egg until incorporated, then stir in the cream and vanilla.
  • Add the flour mixture and gently stir until no traces of flour remain. Add the oats, chocolate chips and nuts (if using), and fold until evenly distributed. Loosely scoop a rounded ball of dough using a measuring tablespoon or small cookie scoop and drop onto a prepared sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough, spacing the balls 2 inches apart.
  • Bake, 1 sheet at a time, until golden brown, 12 to 14 minutes. Cool on the sheet on a wire rack for 1 minute, then transfer the cookies to the rack to cool completely. The cookies will keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 2 months.

CHOCOLATE CHILE BISCOTTI



Chocolate Chile Biscotti image

The word "biscotti" comes from the Latin biscoctus, or twice cooked: The dough is rolled into logs and given a spell in the oven, then cooled, sliced and slotted back in to bake a little more. The second turn in the oven essentially sucks them dry and gives them that signature crunch. Too much crunch, however, and they can be a little flinty. The pastry chef Mark Sopchak makes biscotti that are shorter and narrower - "Biscottini!" an Italian passerby once said - and ever so slightly softer, with the addition of butter. These cookies are thin enough to snap smartly under the teeth and then obligingly crumble. Inspired in part by Mexican mole, they have a touch of creaminess from cashews and a wild streak of chile powder, just enough to make you hum.

Categories     cookies and bars, dessert

Time 3h

Yield 36 to 40 small biscotti

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups/272 grams all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1/3 cup/32 grams Dutch-processed cocoa powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup/114 grams unsalted butter, at room temperature
3/4 cup/151 grams granulated sugar, plus more for sprinkling
2 tablespoons ancho chile powder
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2/3 cup/85 grams roasted and unsalted cashews, roughly chopped
1/2 cup/100 grams chocolate chips (any type)

Steps:

  • Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt. In a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter, sugar and chile powder on medium-low speed until smooth and well combined, about 2 minutes.
  • Increase the speed to medium. With the mixer running, add the eggs, 1 at a time, pausing to scrape down the sides of the bowl if needed, then add the vanilla extract. Beat until well mixed, about 1 minute.
  • Turn the speed to low and, with the mixer running, add the flour mixture a little at a time. Continue mixing until the dry ingredients are almost incorporated, scraping the bowl as needed, then add the cashews and chocolate chips all at once. Keep mixing until the cashews and chocolate have integrated and a thick dough has formed.
  • Divide the dough in half and roll each half into a 12-inch log. (You can use a sheet of wax or parchment paper to help roll the dough evenly, or dust with extra flour if the dough is sticky.) Place both logs on a half-sheet pan lined with parchment paper, then flatten both logs with your palms until about 1-inch thick. Sprinkle each with a little granulated sugar to evenly coat.
  • Bake until the logs lose their sheen, 20 to 25 minutes. There should still be some softness in the middle of each log when gently pressed. Be careful not to overbake, as the logs may break when sliced later.
  • Turn off the oven, take out the biscotti and let cool on the sheet pan for a few hours. (The longer they rest, the easier they will be to slice without breaking.)
  • For the second bake, heat the oven to 300 degrees. (The temperature is lower for gentler, more even baking.)
  • Using a serrated knife, slice each log at an angle into ½-inch slices. You may trim and discard the ends or bake them along with the other slices - they taste just as good. Place the slices, cut sides down, on the same parchment-lined half-sheet pan. (You don't need to be careful about spacing them out.)
  • Bake for about 25 minutes, or until the biscotti are no longer soft to the touch. They will harden a little further after cooling. Remove from the oven and cool completely on the pan. The biscotti will keep for 2 weeks in an airtight container at room temperature.

Valuable Tips for Making Ancho Chili Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies

When it comes to baking cookies, it's often the little things that make all the difference. If you're trying to create an unforgettable batch of ancho chili chocolate chip oatmeal cookies, here are a few tips to help you get it just right.
Tip #1: Toast and Grind Your Ancho Chilies
If you're going to put ancho chilies in your cookies, it's worth taking the time to toast and grind them properly. Toasting brings out the flavor and aroma of the chilies, while grinding them ensures that they distribute evenly throughout the dough. To toast your ancho chilies, spread them out on a baking sheet and put them in the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 5-7 minutes. You'll know they're done when you can smell their aroma. Grind the chilies in a spice grinder or coffee grinder until they're a fine powder. If you don't have a grinder, you can use a mortar and pestle or a rolling pin to crush them.
Tip #2: Use High-Quality Chocolate
The chocolate chips you choose for your cookies can make a big difference in their flavor and texture. For ancho chili chocolate chip oatmeal cookies, consider using high-quality dark chocolate chips with a cacao content of at least 70%. Look for chocolate chips that are made with real cocoa butter and not vegetable oil. These will have a richer, smoother flavor and will melt more evenly in the oven.
Tip #3: Don't Overmix the Dough
When making oatmeal cookies, it's important not to overmix the dough. Overmixing can cause the cookies to become tough and dry. Instead, mix your dry ingredients together first, then add your wet ingredients and mix just until everything is combined. Stir in your chocolate chips and toasted ancho chilies at the end.
Tip #4: Chill the Dough
Chilling the dough before baking can help the cookies keep their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven. It also allows the flavors to meld together and gives the oats time to soften. Chill your dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. You can also make the dough ahead of time and refrigerate it overnight.
Tip #5: Use Parchment Paper
Using parchment paper on your baking sheet can help prevent your cookies from sticking and make cleanup easier. Parchment paper also helps the cookies bake more evenly and promotes browning on the bottom. If you don't have parchment paper, you can use a silicone baking mat or grease your baking sheet with cooking spray or butter.
Tip #6: Monitor Your Cookies Carefully
Because ancho chili chocolate chip oatmeal cookies can be a little darker than traditional oatmeal cookies, it can be harder to tell when they're done. Keep a close eye on them as they bake and remove them from the oven when they're just starting to turn golden brown around the edges. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This will help them firm up and prevent them from falling apart.
Tip #7: Store Them Properly
Oatmeal cookies can dry out quickly, so it's important to store them properly to keep them fresh. Store your ancho chili chocolate chip oatmeal cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can also freeze the cookies for up to 3 months. Let them thaw at room temperature before serving.

Conclusion

By following these simple tips, you can create a batch of delicious ancho chili chocolate chip oatmeal cookies that are sure to impress. Whether you're an experienced baker or just starting out, these tips will help you elevate your cookie game and make your next baking project a success.
