the cookies are rich in chocolate and nuts... I would be tempted to add some raisins to one batch... this recipe and photo are courtesy of Southern Living, JULY 2001 Ingredients:
• 6 (1-ounce) semisweet chocolate squares, chopped |
• 2 (1-ounce) unsweetened chocolate squares, chopped |
• 1/3 cup butter |
• 3 large eggs |
• 1 cup sugar |
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour |
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder |
• 1/8 teaspoon salt |
• 2 cups (12 ounces) semisweet chocolate morsels |
• 2 cups coarsely chopped pecans |
• 2 cups coarsely chopped walnuts |
Directions:
1. Combine first 3 ingredients in a heavy saucepan; cook, stirring often, over low heat until chocolate melts. Remove from heat; cool slightly. 2. Beat eggs and sugar at medium speed with an electric mixer until smooth; add chocolate mixture, beating well. 3. Combine flour, baking powder, and salt; add to chocolate mixture, stirring just until dry ingredients are moistened. Fold in chocolate morsels, pecans, and walnuts. 4. Drop batter by tablespoonfuls 2 inches apart onto lightly greased baking sheets. 5. Bake at 325° for 12 to 15 minutes or until done. Cool cookies on baking sheet 1 minute. Remove to wire racks; cool. |
