Debbie Dahlin writes that the salubrious benefits promised by the name of these ultrarich chocolate-chocolate chip cookies come not just from eating them but also from baking them. Ingredients:
8 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped |
about 6 tablespoons butter or margarine |
3/4 cup sugar |
1 large egg |
2 teaspoons vanilla |
2/3 cup all-purpose flour |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon baking powder |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips (6 oz.) |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl set over (but not touching) barely simmering water, stir chopped semisweet chocolate and butter often until chocolate is melted and mixture is smooth, about 5 minutes. Remove bowl from over water and, with a whisk or a mixer on medium speed, beat in the sugar, egg, and vanilla until well blended.
2. In a medium bowl, mix flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Add to chocolate mixture and stir until well blended. Stir in chocolate chips.
3. Drop dough in 1-tablespoon portions 3 inches apart onto buttered 12- by 15-inch baking sheets.
4. Bake in a 350° regular or convection oven just until cookies are set on the edges but still slightly soft in the center, 7 to 10 minutes; if baking two sheets at once in one oven, switch their positions halfway through baking. Let cookies cool for 5 minutes, then use a wide spatula to transfer to racks to cool completely.
5. Nutritional analysis per cookie.
