Triple Chocolate Cookies

This weekend has been a whirlwind and all I did was sneak in baking here and there. I have had no time for blogging and I feel terrible. So, I am going to have to make up for it this week. I did do a cookbook review for the first time this year. Mickey's Gourmet Cookbook, and don't laugh because this cookbook is actually a collection of recipes from Disney's many restaurants. This was one of my New Year's Resolutions. Pick a cookbook out of many, that I adore, and make a review. Deborah at Taste and Tell does this and I applaud her commitment to doing this every month. She always comes across the best recipes. . .absolutely Yum!
Since I am in a hurry, I am going to get right to the recipe. The triple chocolate cookies are reminiscent of the cookies I used to bake for Ashley when she was about 3 years old, only the ones I used to bake for her didn't have white chocolate chips or toasted pecans chunks in them. The toasted pecans add so much to this cookie. I was shocked at the depth of flavor and I am now adding this cookie to one of my regulars again. The cookie is airy because of the egg whites but they are also quick to mix together. I made a butter cookie with the egg yolks, which I will blog about later this week.
