Double Chocolate Chip Crunch Cookies
These easy Double Chocolate Chip Crunch Cookies are full of white chocolate chips, semi-sweet chocolate chips, and Nestle chocolate crunch bits! Rich and fudgy, these chewy double chocolate chip cookies are kind of to die for.
These Double Chocolate Chip Crunch Cookies will satisfy even the biggest of chocolate fans!
Trust me. As a true chocolate fanatic, these are where it’s at. 😉
‘Tis the season for all things cookies!
Or perhaps I should say, ’tis the season for ‘everything that tastes amazing and will give you reason to take up running in the new year.’
I kid…to an extent.
It’s just so bad. If it’s not a cookie I’m eating (and as of late, besides these Double Chocolate Chip Crunch Cookies, I’ve been obsessed with these Chewy Maple Sugar Cookies), it’s this Easy Chocolate Fudge. If it’s not the homemade fudge, it’s toffee. If it’s not the toffee…
I digress.
The struggle.
The struggle is so real.
Back in the day, my mom went to an annual Christmas cookie exchange. Apart from Christmas Day itself, that was pretty much the highlight of the season.
It was practically Christmas magic. I mean, she left the house with one batch of cookies and came home with somewhere between 10-12 batches.
Can we all just take a moment and applaud the creator of cookie exchange parties? Any time you can leave with one set of cookies and come back with double digits, it’s a glorious thing.
Plus, attending a cookie exchange party gives you a perfectly good excuse to have multiple batches of cookies on your counter without subject to judgement.
My mom typically brought Molasses Sugar Cookies or Snickerdoodles to her cookie exchange, which was amazing because she always made extras for us (and both of those are my ultimate comfort cookies).
However, if you’re a major chocolate fan, then these Double Chocolate Chip Cookies with a little bit of crunch are THE choice for you. Whether you’re looking for a chocolate cookie recipe for a Christmas party, for Santa, or just because (I’m a major proponent of the ‘just because’ reason), these chocolate cookies with white chocolate chips are a must bake!
Double Chocolate Chip Crunch Cookies Tips & Tricks:
- For these double chocolate chip cookies, I used a combination of white chocolate chips, semi-sweet chocolate chips, and Nestle crunch bits. Feel free to use any combination of chocolate chips, or try these with just Nestle crunch bits. The dough is completely versatile!
- I love espresso powder and I use it in all of my chocolate desserts. While it is optional in this recipe, coffee enhances the flavor of chocolate, thus the espresso powder gives these cookies that extra rich flavor.
- I opted for dark chocolate cocoa powder because I love the intense, rich flavor it gives these cookies. You can easily substitute unsweetened cocoa powder as well.

I agree…the struggle is SO real when you’re the one making and then eating all of the sweets! And I hear you about the cookie exchange. I’ve done two before and I’m always in awe of how many I come home it! But of course, I eat them ALL! These cookies sound perfect, Michelle! I love the crunch and double the chocolate. Such a great treat for the holidays!

Must eat all the chocolate!!! These look so good, but then again, what doesn’t on your page? Always love stopping by!
