Course: Dessert
Preparation Time: 30-60 Minutes

Ingredients:
1 1/2 Cup(s) unsweetened chocolate, in chips or chunks
8 Cup(s) bittersweet chocolate, in chips or chunks
1 Each(s) stick unsalted butter
2 Cup(s) sugar
5 Each(s) eggs
1/2 Cup(s) all-purpose flour
2 3/4 Teaspoon(s) baking powder
1 1/4 Teaspoon(s) salt
1 1/4 Cup(s) walnuts (optional)
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. melt the unsweetened chocolate and 4 cups of the bittersweet chocolate over a double-boiler, stirring periodically.

Cream the butter and sugar in a mixer until light and fluffy and add the eggs one at a time, blending until mixed.

Add the flour, baking powder and salt to the butter mixture and mix just until combined.

Add the melted chocolate and mix until combined and stir in the nuts and remaining chocolate pieces. Pour the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Put the mixture into the refrigerator for 5 to 10 minutes until slightly, but not completely, hardened.

Reverse the baking sheet onto another piece of parchment paper on a hard surface. use a knife to divide the mixture into 20 squares. With your hands, roll each of the squares in a ball and evenly space them on one or two parchment-lined baking sheets (leave room for them to spread).

Bake the cookies for 15 to 25 minutes, until crusty on the outside (they should still be gooey on the inside). Allow to cool for at least 20 minutes before eating.
