Like others said the batter is thin and makes you think you did something wrong. However, they turn out fine and are delicious!! I love them!!

Our batter also came out super thin, so to save time, I baked them in a jelly roll pan for about 20-25 minutes at 350 degrees. They're super duper rich. My sons all said, "Please make these again!"

Even though I let the batter sit for a while so that it could set up, my first batch out of the oven came out very flat and large. The second batch looked like normal cookies. However, they tasted super good - like a very rich chocolate brownie!

Dang! These babies are GOOD! I gave it four stars for two reasons: (1) it seemed as though the dough took a bit of time to set up. At first I thought I'd have to make a cake out of the batter; it seemed that runny. I put one sheet in as a "test" and they turned out fine, plus the dough did get stiffer as I prepared the rest of the sheets and (2) these cookies are more "adult" cookies, that is, very intensely chocolate and not terribly sweet. Which I loved! But I wouldn't necessarily bake them for the kiddies.

Is something missing from this recipe? More like cake batter than cookie dough. 3 eggs to only 3/4 flour? That just doesn't seem right but they are in the oven so we'll see what happens. Other two reviews said they were good.

I absolutely love chocolate AND coffee! When I first made these, I entered them into a contest at a Christmas party. They won 1st place! I am in love with these cookies!
