Royal Double Chocolate Cookies

Royal Double Chocolate Cookies. Extra rich, extra chocolatey, and decadent. Cookies that melt in your mouth and completely satisfy all chocolate cravings. Oh so good. One bonus, all made in one bowl, no mixer required.

16 ounces semi-sweet chocolate, chips or chopped
1/4 cup butter
3/4 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
2 eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
3/4 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Melt 8 ounces of chocolate and all the butter in a small bowl over simmering water. (using the microwave is fine, just check every 2 minutes). Stir the mixture as it melts.

When melted, remove from heat and stir in sugar, eggs and vanilla. Add flour and baking powder. Stir in remaining 8 ounces of chocolate.

Drop large scoops or 1/4 cup sized amounts of batter on a parchment lined cookie sheet. (an ungreased cookie sheet works too). Bake for 12-15 minutes or until cookies appear set. Cool on the cookie sheet for 2 minutes and remove to a cooling rack.

Store in an air-tight container. Eat the entire batch immediately.


Wait...that last part...eat the entire batch? Who wrote that???
