Yield 48 Cookies, 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 (1 ounce) unsweetened chocolate squares
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips, divided
1/3 cup butter or 1/3 cup margarine
1 cup sugar
3 large eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons baking cocoa
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • In a microwave or double broiler, melt unsweetened chocolate, 1 cup (6 oz.) chocolate chips, and butter; cool for 10 minutes.
  • In a mixing bowl, beat sugar and eggs for two minutes. Beat in vanilla and the cooled chocolate mixture.
  • Combine dry ingredients (except confectioners sugar); beat into chocolate mixture.
  • Stir in remaining chocolate chips.
  • Cover and chill for at least 3 hours.
  • Remove 1 cup of dough. With lightly floured hands, roll into 1" balls. Place on ungreased baking sheets.

  • Repeat with remaining dough.
  • Dust with confectioners sugar.

  • **Cook and chill time are combined.
