    Recipe



    Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Microwave 3/4 cup morsels in a small, uncovered, microwave-safe bowl on high (100%) power for 1 minute; stir. Morsels may retain some of their original shape. If necessary, microwave at additional 10 to 15-second intervals, stirring just until morsels are melted. Cool to room temperature. Combine flour, baking soda and salt in a small bowl.

    Beat butter, brown sugar, sugar and vanilla extract in a large mixing bowl until creamy. Beat in melted chocolate and egg. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in 3/4 cup morsels and nuts. Drop by rounded tablespoon onto ungreased baking sheets.

    Bake for 8 to 9 minutes or until edges are set but centers are still slightly soft. Cool on baking sheets for 3 mintues; remove to wire racks to cool completely. Thinly frost centers of cookies with chocolate frosting.

    Chocolate Frosting: Microwave remaining 1/2 cup morsels and butter in medium, microwave-safe bowl on high power for 30 seconds; stir until smooth. Microwave at additional 10 to 15-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Add powdered suar and milk; stir until smooth. Makes about 12
