These may be the most under-the-radar famous cookies out there. Remember when New Yorkers were lining up for blocks to buy the Cronut—the donut made of croissant dough that made the whole world lose its mind? Dominique Ansel was the mastermind pastry chef who created that treat. So can you imagine how good his cookies are? We tried them and they are everything you would expect from Chef Ansel: rich, dense, irresistible.
For Christmas gifts we are featuring Ansel’s combo box: 5 Double Chocolate Pecan Cookies which are like a gooey chocolate brownie in the center with perfectly crisp edges, studded with toasted pecans throughout. Made with almond flour, they happen to be gluten-free too! Add to that 5 Chocolate Chunk Cookies made with milk and dark chocolate chunks and baked until golden with a soft gooey center.
