I was recently at a simchah and tasted the most delicious cookies. They tasted like a brownie but in cookie form and had sprinkles placed exactly in the center. Can you help me with this recipe, please? Shana G, Lakewood I recently made these for my son’s aufruf and they have the perfect consistency — chewy and crispy at the same time. They taste great straight from the freezer. I’m so glad there are none left! I believe this is what you’re referring to.
1 cup (200 grams) margarine (use soy-free, if needed)
3/4 cup Gefen Cocoa
2 cups sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons Gefen Vanilla
1 and 1/2 cups Mishpacha Flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup chopped nuts
nonpareil candies, for decoration
Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius).
Melt margarine. Cool slightly and pour into a mixing bowl. Add cocoa, sugar, eggs, and vanilla and beat together. Add flour and rest of ingredients.
Wet hands and form into medium-sized balls or drop from a tablespoon two inches (five centimeters) apart onto a cookie sheet lined with Gefen Parchment Paper.
Bake for 8 minutes for a very chewy cookie and 10 minutes for a slightly crispier cookie. Be sure to rotate pans in middle. As soon as cookies are removed from oven, place a nonpareil candy in the center of the cookie, pressing down ever so slightly.
Yields 40 large cookies or 54 medium cookies.

substition for chopped nuts looks great, any ideas for substitions for the chopped nuts?
You can use shredded coconut. However, you can’t leave it out because it gives the cookies a certain chewiness.
substituting the flour can i use white whole wheat flour instead of whole wheat pastry flour? in general is it interchangable?
Pastry flour makes it lighter.
This is one of my favorite chocolate cookie recipes! They are fudgy, chocolatey, and easy to make!
We’re so happy you like them!
We made this for the kids’ first day back to school and they were so proud of it!! Beautiful and delicious!!!
We are so happy we could help make your kids back to school special!
So pretty! Our community tries to get together a few times a year in our Shul’s kitchen to provide some homemade baked goods for kiddush. We decided to make this recipe as it’s pretty, handheld, and chocolate! It was a hit! Kids and adults enjoyed the tasty treats.
