I love this recipe and have been making it for years. I recently had to go gluten-free and made some adjustments that worked really well. I increased the cocoa powder to 3/4 of a cup and decreased the all purpose flour to 3/4 of a cup.

I increased the cocoa powder to 3/4 of a cup and decreased the all purpose flour to 3/4 of a cup. I substituted the all purpose flour for king Arthur flour’s gluten free flour and I also added 1/4 of a teaspoon of xanthan gum. The cookies turned out almost identical. They were slightly more crispy and a little less to even normal, but my kids thought they were identical. I noticed the difference, but it was totally subtle.

I've made these at least five times, and had them banned from the office, they were so good... :) I don't have an issue with runny batter at all -- in fact, the batter is incredibly thick every time I make it! I chop dark chocolate for both the melting and the chunks, make sure to use Dutch cocoa, and mix by hand, so not sure whether any of that contributes. They turn out soft inside, sturdy outside, and very very rich.

You can always make alterations while cooking but not with baking. So it helps to read the reviews first and see if you can pick up some pointers. True enough-you need to refrigerate the batter until it becomes easier to scoop and mold. I used 1/2 c. semi-sweet chocolate chips and reduced the sugar by 1/4 cup. Around 12-14 mins. in the oven will do. Chewy and just the right sweetness. I love this recipe

Yum! The only change I made was to use Ghiradelli milk chocolate chips instead of bars and they look just like the picture. Just watch your baking time - ovens vary and my cookies only needed 13-14 minutes. I did not get the predicted number of cookies (double recipe made 55) and I think I used the scoop size that they recommended. I did not need to refrigerate the dough - it was nice and thick and scoop-able. Make sure you use Dutch process cocoa powder; that might be the reason for runny dough

I have to agree with dwboston. I made this recipe just as described, and the cookies fell apart. The taste was good, but I made them for my daughter to take to school for valentines day and they will not work. This recipie is too sensitive. I am wondering if it was the humidity where I live (Georgia). I though I had undercooked them so I put the next tray in for longer and ended up with mushy centers and burned bottoms. I will not try this one again.

Disappointed. The taste was good but the batter was too thing. The cookies were completely deflated. I attempted to cook them for 13 minutes to hopefully help them along but they were greasy. I would try to increase the flour to maybe 2 cups of flour. I didn't add the melted chocolate because the batter was too thin added a cup of coconut and a cup of white chocolate chips to try to thicken things up.

I found the batter okay but when I baked them they came out thin and crispy on the outside with a kind of gooy centre. Flat as pancakes... Good taste but not a fan of the flatness...

Just made for second time. First time I used

These cookies were AMAZING. I used dark chocolate chips instead of the chunks ( It's cheaper this way) and they were so rich and delicious. I cannot complain. I made a video of how I made these here: https://youtu.be/VsQBpYTsNXI I just had to share this with the world. Martha, you get an A+ from me.

They're delish!!
