Recipe: The Mokonuts Chocochunk Cookie Brings Chic Imperfection | Eater

"Eclectic and bare-bones, this daytime-only 11th-arrondissement charmer has showcased co-owners Moko Hirayama and Omar Koreitem’s singular, wonderfully simple cooking since 2015, with signature plates like labneh on toast with seasonal vegetables and silky veloutés inspired by the freshest produce — but the cookies are the calling card. Baked in batches throughout the day so they’re served warm, several varieties have gone viral (Dorie Greenspan helped evangelize the rye, cranberry, and dark chocolate version), giving a Mokonuts cookie serious cachet at holiday cookie swaps. Hirayama embraces intentional imperfection — irregular shapes and rough-cut chunks of dark chocolate over chips — a philosophy that defines the beloved Chocochunks." - Erin DeJesus
