Yeah, they're good. They're REALLY good. I weighted my ingredients, used cake and bread flour, let the dough rest for 36 hours, weighted the dough balls.
I was apprehensive- the chocolate disks are so big- and you have to use the entire 1lb bag? Which cost $20? And that's not even as much chocolate as the recipe calls for?!
I usually bake smaller cookies- these were so big (~5 inches across). Only six fit on a half sheet pan.
But... they came out great. The taste is perfect. The salt is just right. I will say I tried one when it was still warm and it was greasy. The cookies are better cooled a bit, I think. But they still taste good two days later.
These are expensive and fussy cookies but worth the trouble. These are very nice 'special occasion' cookies. Now to come up with a special occasion every month...
