While I had success making these cookies the first time, I appreciate you taking the time to further test the recipe. I've made these cookies several times for the chocolate lovers in my family, next time I will add the 30 minute rest period to eliminate the spread. I've only used Dutch processed cocoa because I like the dark chocolate look and flavor. Like you say in your post, expectations vary when it comes to the flavor and texture of cookies. These cookies may not please ever palate. My family enjoyed these cookies but we will pretty much eat anything made with chocolate.
