ULTIMATE DOUBLE CHOCOLATE COOKIES

Steps:

• 1. In double boiler over hot water, melt bittersweet chocolate chips and butter. 2. In large bowl with electric mixer or whisk, beat eggs and sugar until thick; stir into chocolate mixture. 3. In small bowl, stir together flour and baking powder; stir into chocolate mixture. 4. Gently mix in semi-sweet chocolate chips and walnuts. 5. Using a sheet of plastic wrap, form dough into two logs, each 2 inches in diameter and about 12 inches long. As dough will be quite soft, use plastic wrap to hold dough in log shape. 6. Wrap tightly; refrigerate at least 1 hour or until firm. 7. Heat oven to 375°F. Unwrap dough; with sharp knife, cut into 3/4 inch slices. 8. Place slices 1 1/2 inches apart on greased or parchment-lined cookie sheet. 9. Bake 12 to 14 minutes or until shiny crust forms on top but interior is still soft. Cool on baking sheet; store in airtight tin up to 1 week (if all of these delicious double chocolate cookies aren't eaten before then!)

GHIRARDELLI DOUBLE CHOCOLATE MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a muffin tin with cooking spray, wiping off any excess on the top of the tin.
• In a bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, begin beating the eggs and yolk on medium-high speed. Slowly stream in the sugar while beating and continue to beat until mixture is pale and thickened and ribbons down from the beater when lifted. Scrape down sides of the bowl and beater as needed.
• Beat in the oil until fully incorporated. Scrape down bowl and beater and beat in sour cream and vanilla until evenly incorporated.
• Add the dry ingredients to the wet and fold in until only a few visible streaks remain. Add 8 1/2 ounces of the chocolate chips and fold in just until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
• Spoon the batter into prepared muffin cups, smoothing the tops if needed but keeping the scoops mounded. Top each with some of the remaining chocolate and sprinkle with the coarse sugar.
• Bake muffins in preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of one comes out free of wet batter (it may come out with melted chocolate), 18 to 20 minutes. Cool muffins in pan for about 15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
