Used ordinary chocolate bar chunks for cookies - it all melted in the oven :(

Should I be using baking chocolate bar chunks instead of normal chocolate bar chunks for cookies (if I am not using chocolate chips)?

All chocolate will melt in the oven, surely? Let them cool on the try before trying to move them and they should be fine.

How do you mean melted? Did the cookies spread?

The cookies literally look like plain cookies with nutella smeared on them - that kinda melted :/

Do you mean you wanted them to stay a bit "chunky", but they melted completely?

I think you have to use cooking chocolate and cook them quite low to keep the chunks a bit solid.

Cookie dough in the freezer 10 minutes before cooking!

Did you put the chocolate chunks on top or mix them in properly with the dough? I use normal chocolate for mine and they melt but not like that.

What do you mean by chunks?

All chocolate melts in heat but if you chop it small enough then it shouldn't spread too much.

When I make chocolate chip pancakes I use a small bar of green and blacks chocolate but I chop it up and it works fine.

How long did you bake them for? I use catering chocolate chips as they are harder and will stay in shape while the cookie bakes.

I think the point of cooking CBC chips is that they retain their shape whilst cooking. Having said that I think your cookies sound delicious.....

Chocolate chips, not CBC chips!

I always use ordinary chocolate broken into chunks for baking. I've never had a problem - obviously it melts but it sets again into chunks.
