Chocolate Biscuit And Cookie Recipes
Fancy a spot of easy baking? Biscuits and cookies are one of the easiest bakes to make. This collection of chocolate biscuit and cookie recipes is here to help. From a classic choc chip cookie to festive crinkle cookies to Italian chocolate biscotti and everything in between, we have it covered.
As the chocolate heavy months of February, March and April move into the start of summer, there are still chocolate recipes aplenty. In our house, chocolate never goes out of fashion and it looks as though some of you are with me on this. Come have a look and join us if you dare.
It’s May Day and I have many reasons to feel joyful. The sun is shining, it’s my favourite time of the year and I have a whole heap of chocolate biscuit and cookie recipes to share with you all. We’re just back from a couple of days away and despite the copious amount of work that still needs doing to our garden, I really noticed just how pretty it’s looking. I wish you all good baking, good gardening and a very happy month.
Chocolate Biscuit And Cookie Recipes
Ask for a chocolate biscuit and what do you expect? For me it means a digestive covered in chocolate, but for you it probably means something different. Because there are masses of different chocolate biscuit and cookie recipes out there. Here are a few to be getting on with.
Chocolate Chip Cookies
Chocolate chip cookies are probably the most popular homemade biscuit. This is reflected in the bounty of choc chip cookie recipes we have in this collection. But two choc chip cookies are the same. Take a look if you don’t believe me.
Coffee Choc Chip Cookies

My contribution to our 9 summer chocolate recipes are these coffee chocolate chip cookies with cardamom. They’re made with ethical chocolate flavoured with coffee beans and cardamom, another great combination of flavours. We had a brief drop in temperature so I hot-footed it to the kitchen and braved the oven. I’m glad I did.
ANZAC Biscuits

Anzac Day has passed me by once again. Every year I mean to bake up some biscuits. Johanna at Green Gourmet Giraffe was not so remiss – ANZAC biscuits with milo and white chocolate.
Double Chocolate Muesli Cookies

Helen over at Family Friends Food converted her popular muesli cookies into these easy double chocolate muesli cookies, which proved to be even more popular.
Tiger Nut Chocolate Chip Cookies (Gluten Free)

One of the 11 luscious chocolate recipes are my tiger nut chocolate chip cookies. I was super excited about coming up with these gluten-free, refined sugar-free and vegan biscuits made with chufa flour.
Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies

Chocolate and peanut butter is one of my favourite combinations. I am not alone it seems. These dark and chewy chocolate peanut butter cookies from The Gluten Free Alchemist are simple to make and incredibly easy to demolish.
Peanut Butter Cup Cookies

Chocolate Pretzel Cookies

Chocolate pretzel cookies from Something Sweet Something Savoury.
Minstrels Cookies

Who doesn’t love a bargain? When Hungry Hinny found a bag of Minstrels going cheap, she couldn’t resist using some of them to bake biscuits. Unusually, these Minstrel cookies are made with cream cheese rather than egg – perfect for WSC.
Sweet Potato Choc Chip Cookies

Corina from Searching for Spice gets us back on track with a healthier and very interesting bake – sweet potato and chocolate chip cookies.
Soft Bake Cookies With Milk Chocolate Chunks

These gooey soft bake cookies with dairy milk chocolate chunks from Debbie at Proper Foodie are apparently the best soft bake cookies ever.
Soft & Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies

Vegan Chocolate Chunk Cookies

Nico from Yumsome reckons she makes the best vegan choc chunk cookies ever and who am I to disagree? They are chewy and bursting with chocolate and look absolutely fabulous.
Vegan Skillet Cookie

And for something a bit different, how about this giant vegan chocolate chip cookie? It’s baked in a small skillet. At its best eaten warm with ice cream. It’s more of a dessert really, but well worth doing.
Chocolate Chip Skillet Cookie

Late night munchies are now resolved with this chocolate chip skillet cookie over at Elizabeth’s Kitchen Diary – all you need is a skillet!
Chocolate Biscuits
Chocolate Espresso Puddle Cookies (Gluten Free)

I published a post recently that is great for using up egg whites. Kate at The Gluten Free Alchemist has now given us another fabulous recipe for just such a situation. It doesn’t even matter if you’ve got a bit of yolk mixed up in them. Her chocolate-espresso puddle cookies have a surprise ingredient that makes me want to get baking despite the current heatwave. They’re dairy and gluten-free too.
Chocolate Pistachio Biscotti (Gluten Free)

I also went gluten free with my festive We Should Cocoa bake last month. These chocolate pistachio biscotti with orange and cardamom were delicious.
Giant Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookies

Another of mine are these giant chocolate macadamia nut cookies. They lie somewhere between a cookie and a tart and are absolutely delicious.
Chocolate Sandwich Biscuits
Viennese Whirls

My own #GBBO inspired chocolate Viennese whirls with vanilla buttercream and blackcurrant jam.
Chocolate Sesame Sandwich Cookies

Combine tahini, sesame seeds, mascarpone and chocolate and you’ll end up with these luscious chocolate sesame sandwich cookies from Green Gourmet Giraffe.
Chocolate Philadelphia Macarons

Oh, how I love macaroons. Sarah of Maison Cupcake must have known this as she is sharing with us these most delicious looking chocolate philadelphia macarons. But these are macarons with a twist – no not choccy philly, although they do contain that too, but even better, hazelnuts.
Chocolate Bear Macarons

Why go hunting for bears when you can make your very own chocolate bear macarons? Find out how at Emily’s Recipes and Reviews.
Chufa Chocolate Macaroons

This chocolate macaroon recipe with honeyed chocolate ganache is the very one I was talking about for using up egg whites. These macaroons are a little different to your average though. They’re made with chufa flour rather than ground almonds. They’re delicious.
Chocolate Caramel Cups

What lovely little bites of scrumptiousness these chocolate caramel cups look from Urvashi of Botanical Kitchen. Of course to make them look as pretty as this, you need to be a lot more adept at piping than I am. Maybe I should have attended the London Chocolate Festival where Urvashi was demonstrating these.
Rugelach With Chocolate And Cherries

Suelle of Mainly Baking can always be relied on to come up with something impressive for We Should Cocoa and this month she gives us rugelach with chocolate and cherries. Not only impressive but sounding absolutely delicious too.
Chocolate Dipped Biscuits
Chocolate Orange Scottish Shortbread

Berry Jaffa Cakes

I am super impressed with Kate’s mixed berry “jaffa’ cakes over at The Gluten Free Alchemist. They look just as they should I reckon, only much much better. The base is made from a sticky rice flour and the jelly is made from Kate’s own autumnal berry jam.

Thanks for hosting such a delicious event, though I am not much of a chocolate fan – I do like to join in when I can. This month I have made brownies, I am sharing one of those recipes topped with tayberries.
Lovely, thank you Shaheen. For someone who’s not very keen on chocolate, you do remarkably well 🙂 I’m so glad you join in when you can as your recipes are always so interesting.
I can’t believe I haven’t seen those magic cakes before – that orange one is absolutely stunning! I’ve really missed WSC and playing along… believe it or not I might just have an entry up my sleeve for June!
Woohoo Lucy, it would be fabulous to have you share one of your creative recipes again 😀
Lovely round up Choclette. I do love a good friand -nice to see them make an appearance! And that magic cake has my eye too! x
Thanks Kate. I’ve been meaning to make a magic cake for years, so it was good to get a reminder.
Wow everything looks so good!
It always does and I always so wish I could try everything.
#WeShouldCocoa never disappoints! Wonderful choice of recipes and I agree you just want to try them all. I love the colours on battenberg and who doesn’t love chocolate fondant especially if it looks as perfect as Jen’s!
Well yes exactly Jo. Mind you, your contribution was pretty mouthwatering too 🙂
Great round up Choclette, I absolutely love Kate’s twist on the battenberg and Jo’s pavlova looks amazing, as does Jenny’s chocolate fondant………mmm yum! I have to say too that I’ve never made friands before and you’ve definitely persuaded me to pop them on my to bake list! 🙂
Angela x
Yes, it’s all very mouthwatering Angela. Friands are just the best thing to use up any leftover egg whites – they are super quick and easy to make and delicious too. I really want to make your magic cake now!
So many fascinating and creative recipes here – I really love the amarula cake and that chocolatey pav.
As usual Johanna, I just wish I could try everything and your biscuits sound very tempting too.
Awesome round up, fantastic to see some free from recipes featuring from Charlotte and Kate x
Thanks Rebecca. it’s always good to see some free from recipes – great for ideas. My friands are gluten free too.
I love the colours of the Battenberg.
No entry from me this month, I’m afraid – I haven’t baked for several weeks in an effort to lose some weight before our June holiday. I’ll be running out of blog posts soon!
Oh I missed your entry this month Suelle. I hope the lack of baking helped with losing weight and that you enjoy your holiday. Where are you off to this year?
I’m not sure whether I miss baking or eating the most! We’re off to the NE corner of France – Alsace – for a week of touring and eating.
Well that sounds delightful Suelle. Worth saving yourself now so you don’t need to worry when you’re there.
They all look marvelous! Those dairy free chocolate cupcakes are my absolute favourite.
They do look good don’t they? The cupcakes and everything else.
