These Triple Chocolate Cookies are a chocolate lovers delight! Filled with three kinds of chocolate, these soft, chewy cookies are a must-make family favorite recipe!

Triple Chocolate Cookies Recipe from addapinch.com

For some time now, I’ve been making these chocolate cookies that seem to disappear faster than I can make them. You see, I have a son who loves chocolate as much, if not more, than I do.

How is that even possible!?

Anyway, these cookies have become one of his most requested cookies – along with chocolate chip cookies, sugar cookies and peanut butter cookies. It’s like he is building his own list of top cookie recipes and he’s making sure he has all of his bases covered.

Smart boy.

I don’t think I could be prouder! Ha!

For these cookies, you begin with melting chocolate and a little butter, stirring until it is smooth and then allowing it to cool completely. While it cools, you’ll beat together your butter, sugar, and eggs until light and fluffy. You’ll think you’ve been beating the mixture together too long, but trust me, this part takes about five minutes to get it to just the right consistency.

Then, slow down your mixer and stir in the cooled chocolate until just combined and then stir in your dry ingredients. Drop scoops onto a prepared baking sheet, bake in your preheated oven and then voila! Step back and watch them be devoured.

Here’s my Triple Chocolate Cookie recipe. You are going to want to make these again and again!

  1. 5 stars
    I just made these tonight for the kids and I have to say with the ingredients I was skeptical…my chocolate also turned spongy…only half cup of flour….
    But they were amazing! You are my go to for everything recipes! Thank you!

  2. Would love to try these!! I have a question about the 11.5 ounces of chocolate chips, is that a weight measurement or volume? Or, about how many cups is that equal to? Thanks!

  3. Hi! I’m curious about your answers to some of the questions in the comments and I have one more. 🙂 It seems like it’s such a small amount of flour and butter and sugar…have the amounts been double checked or is this on purpose for a small amount of dough? Will it double nicely?

    1. Hi Wendy,
      Yes, the amounts are correct in the recipe. The recipe yields about 24 nice sized cookies. You can double the recipe easily if more are needed. Hope you love them!

  4. I am having a problem with melting the chocolate chips and the butter….it is like not melting..just turning into like a soft dough…..do you have the right amount down here…i am confused
