Bon Appétit, November 2008-posted to RC by Catgurrl


List of Ingredients




12 ounces semisweet or bittersweet chocolate, chopped

¼ cup (½ stick) butter

2/3 cup roasted salted macadamia nuts

2/3 cup slivered almonds

½ cup cake flour

¼ tsp baking powder

3 large eggs

½ cup sugar

Powdered sugar



Recipe



Stir chocolate and butter in medium bowl set over saucepan of simmering water until melted and smooth; cool 10 minutes. Using on/off turns, blend macadamias and almonds with flour in processor until nuts are finely ground. Add baking powder and pulse to blend. Whisk eggs and ½ cup sugar in large bowl to blend. Stir chocolate mixture into egg mixture. Add nut-flour mixture; stir just to blend. Chill dough until firm enough to scoop, about 4 hours.


Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper. Roll dough by rounded tablespoonfuls between palms to form balls. Divide between prepared sheets. Chill until firm enough to scoop, about 1 hour. (Do Ahead: Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and keep chilled.)


Preheat oven to 350° F.
Roll dough balls in powdered sugar to coat thickly; return to prepared sheets. Bake until cookies puff and form cracks and tester inserted into center of cookies comes out with a few moist crumbs attached, about 18 minutes. Cool cookies completely on sheets on racks. (Store airtight at room temperature).
