We had these at a holiday party this weekend, and they were so good I had to get the recipe. What's not to like with cookies and brownies all rolled into one?

Ingredients:
½ cup butter
4 (1 ounce) squares unsweetened chocolate, chopped
3 cups (18 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips, divided
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
4 large eggs
1 ½ cups sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract


Directions:
Combine butter, unsweetened chocolate, and 1 ½ cups chocolate chips in a large heavy saucepan. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until butter and chocolate melt; let cool.

Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl, set aside.

Beat eggs, sugar and vanilla at medium speed with an electric mixer. Gradually add dry ingredients to egg mixture, beating well. Then add the chocolate mixture and beat well. Stir in remaining 1 ½ cups chocolate chips.

Scoop dough onto baking sheets 1 inch appart. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes. Cool slightly on baking sheets; remove to wire racks to cool completely.

Well you are right there about combining cookies and brownies! That recipe looks pretty easy and I bet if you added some pecans or walnuts to the mix it would be even better. Thanks for sharing.

That does sound pretty good - I'm a huge brownie fan and my husband is a huge cookie fan. I wonder if we will like them mixed together. I'm going to add it to the list of baking this weekend. I'm all about the walnuts too!

What I love about this is that it's not from a box. It sounds a bit complicated but we might be able to pull it off. I've been looking for a brownie recipe for years (not from a box).
