Fudgy, thick & full of chocolate – a Giant Double Chocolate Cookie for One. 
Ok – here’s my disclaimer. To say this cookie is for one person might be stretching the truth. It’s ginormous. It could feed a family of 4.
But if you’re a true chocolate lover, or cookie monster – its for one. Its One GIANT Double Chocolate Cookie. It’s a GIANT Double Chocolate Cookie for One. Its soft, fudgy, thick, stuffed with oozing melted chocolate chips and so perfect for those necessary late night chocolate cravings
Because when the craving hits – I can’t be bothered to make an entire batch of cookies and wait for the dough to chill. And when I want to eat 5 cookies – having them smooshed together into one massive cookie means I actually only ate 1 cookie.
I have so much restraint.
These cookies are based off of my Soft-Batch Double Chocolate Cookies. The recipe makes one giant cookie that is just as soft, thick & pudgy as the original due to lots of butter, a healthy dose of cocoa and lots of chocolate chips.
Only this time there’s no need to chill the dough. So it’s ready for devouring in no time. All together, you can make the dough and bake the cookie in about 20 minutes total.
I recommend pouring yourself a glass of red wine or cold glass of milk and getting ready to devour this double chocolate cookie perfection. Because a chocolate & wine is the perfect way to unwind on a Friday. Or Monday.

Seriously my favorite treat! I make this recipe at least once a week, since I have started following your blog! Absolutely in love 🙂
AH!!! Thanks so much – the weekly, PERSONAL treat is so needed 😉
Part of me wishes I hadn’t found this recipe because it is SO GOOD. Just the right size, and perfectly soft inside yet just the right amount of crunch on the outside. Will definitely be my go-to on nights the hubby is gone and I need my chocolate fix!
So glad that you loved the cookie! This recipe is totally my Friday night treat to myself when I’m home alone

Fiona,
This cookie was AMAZING!! So simple, yet so delicious. The cocoa powder gives it a nice, rich, deep chocolate flavor. The texture is pretty incredible as well. Soft inside while nice and crisp on the outside. Glad I found this little gem. Thanks.
