Hi Lisa! Thank you for this recipe. Thought I’d dive right in – made your CC Levains, 5 dozen of them tonight! Awesome. All for year-end school sharing, and I sure am proud to send them in! I used 3 1/2 cups of flour (for me, by wt: 1lb 2.5 oz). Everything just as you said, I made my baking time 22 minutes at 350 to get that nice golden color on the top.

Question: next up, I want to try your Dark Choc PB Chip. I do have dutch cocoa that is just itching to be used! Would I use 1/4 cup or a 1/2 cup of it? I am making these for hubby – being a good sport and coming with me to “Sex and the City” this weekend! I want to get this cookie right on the first go around! Thanks, Lisa!

Dawnie,

I’m so glad they worked out so well for you. I also have the recipes posted in this blog, along with every detail about how I got there. It’s the second post after the lasagna.

As for the DC Peanut butter chip cookie, if you LOVE a super, deep rich chocolate flavor, use the half cup. If not, use the 1/4 cup. OR, you could forgo the dutch process, and use 1/2 cup regular baking cocoa, which isn’t as rich, adding 1/4 tsp of baking powder to the recipe. However, since your DP is dying to be used, I’d go with it, and just decrease it to 1/4 cup to be safe (adding 1/4 cup flour), and if it isn’t ‘chocolatey’ enough for you, use 1/2 cup in your next batch. Better edible the first time, just in case ‘too rich’ is hard to eat!

BTW, I’ll be seeing SATC too! I can’t wait! I was addicted to that show.

That said, let me know how the dark chocolate cookies turn out for you
