How to Make Giant Bittersweet Chocolate Toffee Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Set aside.
  3. In a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water (double boiler), melt 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 12 ounces bittersweet chocolate, stirring until smooth and completely melted. Remove from heat and let cool to lukewarm.
  4. In a large bowl, beat 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar and 2 large eggs with an electric mixer until thick and pale, about 5 minutes.
  5. Beat in the cooled chocolate mixture and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients (flour mixture) to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  7. Stir in 1 cup chopped toffee pieces and 1 cup chopped walnuts (optional).
  8. Cover the bowl and chill the batter for at least 45 minutes (or up to overnight) to allow the flavors to meld and the cookies to hold their shape better.
  9. Scoop rounded 1/4 cup portions of batter onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving 2 1/2 inches between each cookie.
  10. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops are dry and slightly cracked. The centers will still be slightly soft.
  11. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
