Ingredients
-
4 1 OZ - SQUARES UNSWEETENED CHOCOLATE, CHOPPED
-
1 CP - SEMISWEET CHOCOLATE CHIPS
-
6 TBSP - BUTTER
-
3 - EGGS
-
1 CP - WHITE SUGAR
-
1 1/2 TSP - VANILLA EXTRACT
-
1/2 CP - ALL-PURPOSE FLOUR
-
2 TBSP - UNSWEETENED COCOA POWDER
-
1/4 TSP - BAKING POWDER
-
1/4 TSP - SALT
-
1 CP - SEMISWEET CHOCOLATE CHIPS
Directions
In the microwave or in a metal bowl over a pan of simmering water, melt unsweetened chocolate, 1 cup of the chocolate chips, and the butter stirring occasionally until smooth. Remove from heat and set aside to cool. In a large bowl, whip eggs and sugar until thick and pale, about 2 minutes. Stir in the vanilla and the chocolate mixture until well mixed. Combine the flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt; gradually stir into the chocolate mixture. Fold in remaining 1 cup chocolate chips. Cover dough and chill for at least an hour or overnight.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Roll chilled dough into 1 inch balls. Place on ungreased cookie sheets so they are 2 inches apart.
Bake for 9 to 11 minutes in the preheated oven. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
