GIANT DOUBLE CHOCOLATE CHIPS COOKIES

These soft textured cookies contain two types of chocolate, unsweetened cocoa powder, and chocolate chips which gives them a rich and complex chocolate flavor. These cookies are the best vector we've found (so far) for highlighting the flavors of dark chocolate without eating the bar of 87% dark chocolate straight.  This is a delicious and even more chocolate-intense adaptation of the Cook's Illustrated Chewy Chocolate Cookies recipe. I found the recipe from Amie's Eat Blog and love the texture of these cookies 

Giant Double Chocolate Cookies

Yield: 12 very large cookies
Ingredients:
1 cup (2 sticks) cold, unsalted butter, cubed
1¼ cup sugar
2 large eggs
½ cup dark cocoa powder
2¼ cups all-purpose flour
¼ tsp. coarse salt
1 tsp. baking powder
2½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2  cup raosted chopped pecan

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350˚ F.  Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.  In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine the butter and sugar.  Beat together on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 2-3 minutes.  Blend in the eggs one at a time, scraping down the bowl as needed.  Mix in the cocoa powder until well blended.  Add the flour, salt and baking powder to the bowl and mix on low speed just until incorporated.  Fold in the chocolate chips and pecan with a spatula.  Transfer the dough to a work surface and knead briefly by hand to be sure the ingredients are well combined.

Divide the dough into 4 ounce portions (or divide into 12 equal pieces).  Roll each portion of dough into a ball and flatten just slightly into a disc.  Place on the prepared baking sheets, a few inches apart.  Bake 16-20 minutes.  Let cool on the baking sheets 5-10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
