You’d never describe this cookies as soft or gooey. Sorry undercooked-cookie lovers, the Rock Cookie is not for you! If you find yourself reaching for the corner brownie or going for crispy biscotti to dip in your hot drink, you’ll love this recipe!
Instead of dipping a soggy cookie that’ll fall into your hot cocoa, the rock cookie will soak up your delicious beverage like a sponge. In the end, you’ll still end up with a moist cookie – ya know, if that’s what you’re into. This cookie truly mimics biscotti in every way. We made them very large, and it does take quite some time and stomach to get through one. If you’re making them for a party that’s serving multiple cookies, we recommend making each cookie smaller, since these are fairly dense.
