Yield 24 Cookies

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups Ghirardelli 60% Cacao Bittersweet Chocolate Chips
6 tablespoons (¾ stick) unsalted butter
3 large eggs
1 cup granulated white sugar
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
2 cups Ghirardelli Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
1 cup chopped walnuts

Steps:

  • Melt the bittersweet chocolate chips and butter in the top of a double boiler or in a heatproof bowl over barely simmering water, stirring occasionally until smooth. In a large bowl, beat the eggs and sugar with an electric mixer until thick; stir in the chocolate mixture. In a small bowl, stir together the flour and baking powder; stir into the chocolate mixture. Gently mix in the chocolate chips and walnuts. Using a sheet of plastic wrap, form the dough into two logs, each 2 inches in diameter and about 8 inches long. Because the dough will be quite soft, use the plastic wrap to hold the dough in the log shape. Wrap tightly; refrigerate for at least 1 hour or until firm. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Grease a cookie sheet or line with parchment paper. Unwrap the dough. With a sharp knife, cut the dough into 3.4-inch slices. Place the slices 1 ½ inches apart on the prepared cookie sheet. Bake for 12 to 14 minutes, until a shiny crust forms on top of the cookies but the interior is still soft. Let cool on the cookie sheet. Then remove from the cookie sheet with a metal spatula. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
