Having kids that are chocoholics, this recipe is great and easy. I sprinkle powdered sugar on mine when they are completely cooled. I also use an ice cream scoop to drop on cookie sheet. That way they are all uniform in size. I have a size #20 scoop and a one tablespoon (35 mm). The smaller one makes more cookies as they spread when baking.

If you place the cookies in the oven when the dough is chilled first, they will not spread as much and will be higher in the middle. More cake-like. At room temperature, they spread more and are flatter and more crispy.

Death by Chocolate Cookie

2 pkg. (16squares) BAKER'S semi-sweet baking chocolate, divided

3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar

1/4 cup butter

2 eggs

1 tsp vanilla

1/2 cup flour

1/4 tsp Calumet baking powder

1 cup of chopped Walnuts

Heat oven 350. coarsely chop 8 squares (1 pkg.) chocolate: set aside. Microwave remaining 8 squares in large microwaveable bowl on HIGH 1-2 minutes. Stir until chocolate is melted and smooth. Stir in sugar, butter,eggs and vanilla. Stir in flour and baking powder. Stir in reserved chopped chocolate and nuts. Drop by 1/4 cupfuls onto ungreased baking sheet. Bake 12-13 minutes or until cookies are puffed and feel set to the touch. Cool on cookie sheet 1 minute. Transfer to wire rack to cool completely. Makes about 1 1/2 dozen.

Note: the last time I made these was about 7 years ago....when my friend and I made them
we commented that the batter consistency looked more like a "Cake" batter, rather than a
cookie batter. We went ahead and put them on the cookie sheet to bake, unsure how they
would turn out. Much to our delight they cooked up great and tasted even better.
