Ingredients

  • 8 oz . dark chocolate bar , Ghirardelli 60% or 70% cacao or similar
  • 2 1/2 tbsp salted butter , cut into pieces
  • 2/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 lg. eggs
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/3 cup all purpose flour
  • spray vegetable cooking oil

Instructions

  • Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Place chocolate and butter in a microwave safe bowl and microwave on high for 30 seconds, stir, then microwave another 30 seconds, or until melted.
  • In a large bowl, whisk eggs, sugar and vanilla until well combined.
  • Slowly add the melted chocolate, whisking continually so you don't cook the eggs.
  • Finally, add the flour and baking powder and whisk until smooth. *See notes
  • Line a large, (12 X 17), sheet pan with parchment paper. Spray the paper lightly with cooking oil.
  • Spoon out approximately golf ball sized gobs of batter. A number 24 or number 30 cookie scoop makes it easy to measure. The cookies will spread a little in the oven.
  • Place in the oven on the center rack for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the cookies just start to crack, rotating the pan 180° after 6 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to firm up for about a minute before removing them from the pan with a turner. Place them on a wire rack to cool.

Notes

  1. Place the batter in your freezer for 8 to 10 minutes to firm up and this will make it a bit easier to scoop and drop on the sheet pan. This will make them 37 minute chewy chocolate cookies.
  2. These cookies freeze well in a container with a lid. They are really nice to eat when frozen right out of the freezer.
