Death By Chocolate Cookie


2 pkg. (16 squares) Bakers Semi-Sweet Baking Chocolate, divided
3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/4 cup butter
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 cup flour
1/4 tsp. baking powder
2 cups chopped nuts

Heat oven to 350 degrees.  Coarsely chop 8 squares (1 pkg) of the chocolate; set aside. Microwave remaining 8 squares chocolate in large microwavable bowl on high 1-2 min.  Stir until ch0colate is melted and smooth.  Stir in sugar, butter, eggs and vanilla.  Stir in flour and baking powder.  Stir in reserved chopped chocolate and nuts.  Drop by 1/4 cupfuls onto ungreased cookie sheet.  Bake 12-13 minutes or until cookies are puffed and feel set to the touch.  Cool on cookie sheet 1 minute.  Transfer to wire rack to cool completely.  Makes about 1 1/2 dozen cookies.

I got this recipe years ago off the back of the Baker's chocolate squares box, I think.  They are super yummy! If you like chocolate that is!
