Outrageous Chocolate Cookies by Evangelia Johnson

Are these the most delicious chocolate cookies ever invented? We think so.

Ingredients:
8 oz semisweet chocolate bar, roughly chopped
4 Tblsp butter
2/3 cups flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
2 large eggs
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 11-12 oz pkg semisweet chocolate chunks

Directions:

1. Heat chopped chocolate and butter in a microwave safe bowl in 20 second increments, stirring between each, until almost melted:  do not overheat.
2. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder and salt.
3. In a mixing bowl, beat eggs, brown sugar and vanilla on high speed until light and fluffy.  Reduce speed to low:  beat in melted chocolate-butter mixture.  Mix in flour mixture until just combined.  Stir in chocolate chunks.
4. Drop heaping tablespoons of dough 2-3 inches apart onto parchment lined baking sheet (use teaspoons for smaller cookies). 
5. Bake at 350, rotating pans halfway through, until cookies are shiny and crackly yet soft in centers, 12 to 15 minutes (9 - 10 minutes for smaller cookies).  Cool on pans for 10 minutes; with a thin metal spatula, transfer to racks to cool completely

Batter consistency: don't worry if the batter seems thin. It should look more like brownie batter than cookie dough.
