  • 6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate

  • 3 large eggs, lightly beaten
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups toasted chopped walnuts or pecans
  1. Place rack in center of oven and preheat to 325F degrees.
  2. For easy clean-up, line cookie sheets with parchment paper or if you prefer, use ungreased cookie sheets.
  3. In a large microwave-safe bowl, add the chocolates and butter and microwave on high for 1 to 2 minutes, until the butter is melted. Continue stirring until the chocolate is also melted and the mixture is well blended.
  4. Allow chocolate mixture to cool slightly, then stir in the sugar.
  5. Stir in the eggs and vanilla.
  6. Add the flour, baking powder and salt and mix until well combined.
  7. Add the nuts and stir until distributed throughout the mixture.
  8. Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls, about 2 inches apart, onto lined or ungreased cookie sheets.
  9. Bake, one cookie sheet at a time in the center of the oven, for 12 minutes or until cookies are set when lightly touched.
  10. Remove from oven and let cookies stand on sheet for 1 minute before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
  11. Store cooled cookies in airtight container.

Baking Note:If you decide to omit the nuts, increase the flour to 1 1/3 cups so the dough doesn't spread too much while baking.

This recipe yields about 3 dozen Rich and Chocolatey Brownie Cookies.

  11. Remove from oven and let cookies stand on sheet for 2 minutes, then transfer with metal spatula to wire racks to cool completely.
  12. Repeat with remaining dough, being sure to allow cookie sheets to cool completely before using them again. (I like to rinse the backsides under cool water to speed up the process.)
  13. In a microwave, melt remaining 1/4 cup chocolate chips and shortening and stir until smooth.
  14. Drizzle melted chocolate over cooled brownie cookies.
  15. Let stand for 30 minutes or until chocolate is set, before storing in airtight container.
