Triple Chocolate Cookies

It’s a quick and easy recipe (prep time is about 15 minutes) that you can adapt to your personal preferences:
If you like a rich chocolate flavor, I recommend:– 2/3 cup milk chocolate– 2/3 cup white chocolate– ¼ cup dark chocolate
Or, if you prefer a balance between sweetness and the bitterness of dark chocolate, I suggest:– 2/3 cup dark chocolate– 2/3 cup white chocolate– ¼ cup milk chocolate
I personally like to add cashews to these cookies. I find the crunch brings something really nice to the texture, but you absolutely don’t need to include them—especially if you don’t have any on hand.
To give my cookies a “magazine look,” I like to press a few pieces of white chocolate on top of each cookie just before baking. It gives a beautiful look once baked.
Speaking of baking, it’s not always easy to know when cookies are done, especially with dark dough (because of the cocoa). Overbake them and they get dry—not great. Underbake them and they don’t hold together. My tip? If the center still looks shiny in the oven, it needs 1–2 more minutes. The baking time is about 10 minutes (based on cookies made with 2 tablespoons of dough), but this can vary slightly from one oven to another.
