Flouring the chips and walnuts keeps them from sinking to the bottom. It is very important to allow the batter to cool well before adding the chocolate chips, or the chips will melt and ruin the batter. This recipe can be baked up to a week in advance, wrapped in plastic, and refrigerated. Ingredients:
1 lb unsalted butter |
1 lb semi-sweet chocolate chips |
12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips |
6 ounces unsweetened chocolate squares |
6 extra large eggs |
3 tablespoons instant coffee granules |
2 tablespoons pure vanilla extract |
2 1/4 cups sugar |
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour |
1 tablespoon baking powder |
1 teaspoon salt |
3 cups chopped walnuts |
