directions

  • In a microwave or double broiler, melt unsweetened chocolate, 1 cup (6 oz.) chocolate chips, and butter; cool for 10 minutes.
  • In a mixing bowl, beat sugar and eggs for two minutes. Beat in vanilla and the cooled chocolate mixture.
  • Combine dry ingredients (except confectioners sugar); beat into chocolate mixture.
  • Stir in remaining chocolate chips.
  • Cover and chill for at least 3 hours.
  • Remove 1 cup of dough. With lightly floured hands, roll into 1" balls. Place on ungreased baking sheets.
  • Bake at 350° for 10-12 minutes, or until lightly puffed and set. Cool on baking sheet 3-4 minutes before moving to wire rack to cool completely.
  • Repeat with remaining dough.
  • Dust with confectioners sugar.
  • (If you want to save time and skip the chilling step, unchilled dough can be dropped directly into mini-muffin tins and baked for about the same length of time.
  • **Cook and chill time are combined.

  1. I took these to church tonight. They were gone really fast. Someone told me they were delicious. I wished they made more in the batch. I will definetly double the recipe next time.
     
  2. I used bittersweet chips instead and added liquer. I recommend chilling - I couldn't get them out of the muffin tin and the texture is much better after chilled.
     
  3. I thought these were OK - but not great. I got a resounding 'so-so' by all of my 'guinea pigs'.
     
  4. I'll definitely make these again. They're delicious and they sold well at our church bake sale. I left off the confectioner's sugar because I felt they were sweet enough and I was too lazy to deal with the mess of powdered sugar ;-) I used the first method with the 3-hour chill time. I may try the muffin tin method next time.
