How to Make Outrageous Chocolate Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, and 12 ounces of chopped bittersweet chocolate. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring until completely melted and smooth. Let cool slightly.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  4. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup packed light brown sugar and 2 large eggs using an electric mixer until light and fluffy (about 3 minutes).
  5. Beat in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  6. Gradually add the melted chocolate mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
  7. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
  8. Stir in 2 cups chocolate chunks (semi-sweet, milk, or dark chocolate).
  9. Drop heaping tablespoons of dough onto prepared baking sheets, leaving 2-3 inches between each cookie.
  10. Bake for 12-15 minutes, rotating baking sheets halfway through, until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly soft. Cookies will continue to bake as they cool.
  11. Let cookies cool on baking sheets for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
