Lala'S Famous Fudge Ecstasy Cookies

• 6 oz bittersweet chocolate, chopped. I use 1 cup Ghiardelli dark chocolate (60% cocoa) chips
• 2 oz unsweetened chocolate (I use Baker's), chopped
• 2 Tbsp butter
• 2 eggs
• 2/3 cup sugar
• 1/4 cup all-purpose or whole-wheat pastry flour
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1/4 tsp baking powder
• 1 cup (6 oz) semi-sweet chocolate chips (again, I use Ghiardelli)
• 1 cup macadamia nuts

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease cookie sheets (or use parchment paper or silicon mats), set aside.
2. In a bowl over simmering water (or in a double boiler) melt the bittersweet chocolate, unsweetened chocolate and butter till melted, stirring constantly.
3. Let cool for 5 minutes. Using a wisk or electric mixer, add eggs, one at a time, until combined. Add sugar, flour, vanilla and baking powder and beat till combined.
4. Stir in semi-sweet chocolate chips and macadamia nuts.
5. Drop dough by rounded teaspoonfuls onto the prepared cookie sheet, about 2 inches apart. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes until edges are firm and surfaces are just becoming dull and cracked.
6. Cool on a wire rack.
7. Enjoy with a glass of milk!
