Recipe Introduction
"These are so wonderful, and worth every bit of the extra effort. This recipe is from an old Gourmet magazine, I think - my copy is so old and yellowed from use, I can barely read it any more. These are almost like candy, but more sophisticated!"
List of Ingredients
2 tablespoons flour, sifted
1/8 teaspoon baking powder
1 pinch salt
1 ounce unsweetened chocolate
3 ounces semisweet chocolate
1 tablespoon butter
1/3 cup light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 tablespoon water
1 large egg
3/4 cup chocolate chips
pecan or walnut halves
Recipe
1. Line two cookie sheets with foil, set aside.
2. Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt.
3. Place the unsweetened and semisweet chocolate and butter in top of double boiler; cover for a few minutes until chocolate begins to melt; uncover and stir until completely melted.
4. Remove from heat and allow to cool for 2-3 minutes.
5. Add sugar, vanilla, water, egg; stir until smooth.
