Time 55m

Yield 12 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 ounces semisweet or bittersweet (60-percent) chocolate, chopped into 1/2-inch pieces
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup flour
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup sugar
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
One 4.67-ounce package chocolate mint thins, such as Andes, chopped into 1/2-inch pieces

Steps:

  • Position one rack in the center of the oven and one rack in the bottom third of the oven and preheat to 300 degrees F. Line 2 large rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Combine the chocolate and butter in a small bowl and place over a saucepan of barely simmering water. Stir occasionally until the chocolate has melted and the mixture is smooth. Cool for 10 minutes.
  • Whisk together the flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk the sugar, eggs, 2 tablespoons water and vanilla to blend in a separate large bowl. Stir in the dry ingredients and fold in the cooled chocolate using a rubber spatula. Fold in chocolate mint pieces. Chill dough to firm slightly, 10 minutes.
  • Using a 1/4 cup to measure, drop 6 mounds of batter onto each baking sheet, spacing apart. Put one sheet on the center rack in the oven, and one on the bottom rack.
