These Sparkling Chocolate Cookies are loaded with flavor and sweetness, and they are outright pretty. Look!
The chocolate flavor here is from cocoa in the dough along with a whole bag of chocolate chunks. I like Aldi’s dark chocolate chunks, but use whatever you can find.
It’s important to note that these cookies don’t keep well. They will go hard after a day. Therefore, bake them up and serve them promptly.
