Double Chocolate Chunk Cookies

Double Chocolate Chunk Cookies
By: Chocolate Lover’s Collection

4 squares Baker’s Semi-Sweet Chocolate, divided
½ cup (1 stick) butter, slightly softened
½ cup granulated sugar
¼ cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
4 squares Baker’s Semi-sweet chocolate

Melt 1 square chocolate; set aside. Cut 3 squares chocolate into large (1/2 inch) chunks; set aside.

Beat butter, sugars, egg and vanilla until light and fluffy. Stir in 1 square melted chocolate. Mix in flour, baking powder and salt. Stir in chocolate chunks. Refrigerate 30 minutes.

Heat oven to 375 degrees. Drop dough by heaping Tablespoons, about 2 inches apart, onto parchment paper lined baking sheets. Bake for 8 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool 5 minutes on cookie sheets. Remove and finish cooling on wire racks.

Melt 4 squares chocolate. Dip ½ of each cookie into melted chocolate. Let stand on waxed paper until chocolate is firm.

Makes about 2 dozen cookies
