Day 9: Mudslides


If you love chocolate then these cookies are for you! You must have a scale to measure out the ingredients for this cookie. Sorry I don't have any other measurements.

Mudslides
Makes about 1 dozen large cookies

Ingredients
  • 4 oz unsweetened chocolate
  • 12 oz bittersweet chocolate
  • 2 oz butter
  • 4 eggs
  • 12 oz sugar
  • .5 oz coffee extract
  • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • 2 oz cake flour (or all-purpose if you don't have cake)
  • 1/3 tsp (or a little more than a 1/4tsp) baking powder
  • very small pinch of salt
  • 14 oz chocolate chips, frozen
  • 2 oz walnuts, chopped and frozen
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Soft together the flour, baking power, and salt.
  3. Melt the unsweetened chocolate, bittersweet chocolate and butter over a double boiler. Once melted remove from heat.
  4. Quickly whip the eggs, sugar, extract, and vanilla together.
  5. Slowly fold the egg mixture into the chocolate mixture continuously stirring.
  6. Fold the sifted ingredients into the mixture.
  7. Finally quickly add the frozen chocolate chips and walnuts.
  8. Use a large or small cookie scoop depending on what size cookies you want.
  9. Bake for about 15 minutes.
Batter will be very wet and liquid at first. If it is too liquid to hold any shape wait a minute or two before scooping, but don't wait too long because then the batter will get too hard to scoop.
