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!)

ULTIMATE DOUBLE CHOCOLATE COOKIES

Steps:

• Melt chocolate over a double boiler or in the microwave, stirring occasionally until smooth. Sift together flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt; set aside.
• In a medium bowl, cream butter with white sugar and brown sugar until smooth. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in coffee crystals and vanilla until well blended. Stir in melted chocolate. Using a wooden spoon, stir in the dry ingredients just until everything comes together. Cover, and let stand for 35 minutes so the chocolate can set up.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper. Roll dough into walnut sized balls, or drop by rounded tablespoonfuls onto the prepared cookie sheets, leaving 2 inches between cookies.
• Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven. Cookies will be set, but the centers will still be very soft because of the chocolate. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 10 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
