Cookies! | Triple Chocolate Fudge

Almost too much chocolate for one cookie.
So, it's a dreary day outside, and in my boredom, I decided to make the extra cookie dough from Monday's cookies into Triple Chocolate Fudge cookies.

I took my Double Chocolate Cookies and took out the white chocolate chips.

The chips became a ganache.

And the ganache became a sweet, smooth white chocolate icing.

Top it with a milk chocolate Hershey's kiss and... voila! Triple Chocolate Fudge cookies.

I used the white chocolate ganache recipe below to coat the cookies (recipe can be found here). Once your cookies are baking, make your chocolate - it will need to chill.

Fresh, hot cookies.

White Chocolate Ganache
Yield | Enough for 12 cookies
Cook Time | 1-2 minutes, plus 15 minutes to chill
______________________________________________________________________


Ingredients:

2 ounces white chocolate (I used Hershey's white chocolate chips)
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 1/2 tablespoons powdered sugar

Pour all ingredients into a microwave-safe bowl.

Microwave all ingredients in short 20 second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth. Refrigerate for 15 minutes, until chocolate is thick and smooth.

Microwave until smooth and creamy.
After the cookies were finished in the oven, I set them out to cool for 5-10 minutes, while the ganache finished setting in the fridge.

Once set, I scooped the ganache into a plastic baggy, cut the tip, and squeezed the sweet, creamy goodness onto the still-warm cookies in a spiral pattern while the cookies are still on the pan.

The warm white chocolate melts over the cookie while it stays warm on the pan.

Stick a Hershey's kiss in the middle and let the cookies sit for a couple minutes on the warm pan and the icing will melt all over their dark chocolatey deliciousness.


Probably one of my favorite variations of this cookie. So rich and chocolately, the gooey brownie-like cookie with the creamy white chocolate... so good. I highly recommend eating on right after the icing has gotten all melty - the Hershey kiss gets all soft and the middle all gooey.

Pour yourself a glass of cold milk and enjoy!
