Looking for an awesome treat, Chunky Chocolate Gobs to the rescue! A blast of chocolatey flavors in a thick chocolate chunk laden gob, just do it!
Well, let me tell how fabulous I think these Chunky Chocolate Gobs are. I’ve made two batches of these in preparation of Christmas cookie gift plates, carefully put them in zip locks in the freezer, and there are none left! Oh sure, no one will own up to this egregious theft, but there are NONE left. Did I mention I made them two and a half days ago and I made two batches? I found this recipe in a few of my Southern Living cookbooks and when the peeps from SL introduce them they claim they are some of the best cookies to ever come through their test kitchens. Can you imagine how many cookies go through their test kitchens? Well, these are Good. I mean GOOD! They would make a great addition to your holiday cookies. If they last that long.
