Molten Chocolate Cookies
(or as I like to refer to them.....Heaven on a Cookie Sheet)
12 oz. Semisweet Choc. chips
3 tablespoons butter
2 large eggs
1/2 c. sugar
1/2 t. salt
1 t. vanilla
1 c. flour
1/2 t. baking powder
Melt chips and butter in top of double boiler over low heat until smooth buth thick. Remove from heat. Set aside to cool.
In large bowl, beat eggs, sugar salt and vanilla on high speed about 2-3 minutes until pale yellow and slightly thickened. Mix in chocolate on low speed. Stop to scrape bowl. Add flour and baking powder on low speed just until incorporated, stopping once to scrape bowl. Cover dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 15-30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 375.
Scoop 8 2" mounds onto parchment lined cookie sheet leaving 2" between cookies. Bake one sheet at a time for 12 minutes or until crusty on the outside but soft in the center. Cool on cookie sheet for 3-5 minutes. Best when served warm (oh yes!). To reheat cookies so the centers become soft again, microwave on high for about 10 seconds per cookie.
(They ain't half bad cold either!)
