Day 14 of 25 Days - Fudge Ecstasies

These cookies are so amazing I totally understand how they got their name.  I’m not a huge chocolate cookie fan (I know, call me crazy), but this is a cookie I could sit down with a glass of milk with and eat until I got sick.  Too much info, sorry I digress.  Not only are these tasty little treats, but they are probably one of the easiest cookies I’ve made in my series so far.

Fudge Ecstasies

Ingredients:
1 12-once package (2 cups) semisweet chocolate pieces
2 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped
2 eggs
2/3 cup sugar
¼ cup All-purpose GF Flour (I used Jules Gluten Free)
1 teaspoon vanilla
¼ teaspoon baking powder
1 cup chopped pecans (you can also use walnuts or almonds)
 
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.  Grease a cookie sheet; set aside.  In a medium heavy saucepan heat and stir 1 cup of the chocolate pieces, the unsweetened chocolate, and butter until melted.  Remove from heat; add the eggs, sugar, flour, vanilla, and baking powder.  Beat with wooden spoon until blended.  Note: mixture will be thin.  Stir in remaining 1 cup chocolate pieces and nuts.

Drop dough by rounded teaspoons 2 inches apart onto the cookie sheet.  Bake for 11-12 minutes or until edges are firm and surfaces are dull and crackled.  Cool on cookie sheet for 2 minutes and then transfer to wire rack.
