150 gm dark chocolate
3/4 cup flour
1 tbsp cocoa powder
1 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
3 eggs at room temp
1/2 tsp baking powder

1. Place an inch of water in a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer over low heat.

2. Place butter, dark chocolate in a large glass or metal bowl and place bowl on top of the simmering water.

3. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and cocoa powder. Set aside.

4. Whisk the chocolate and butter mixture until completely melted and smooth. Remove from heat and add sugars. Whisk until incorporated. Feel the mixture with your finger, it should not be too hot to the touch.

5. Add two eggs and whisk only until combined. Add remaining egg and whisk until combined. Stir in vanilla.

6. Evenly sprinkle half of the flour mixture over the chocolate mixture. Using a flexible and wide spatula, fold the flour mixture into the chocolate mixture until it starts to come together, then add the remaining flour mixture. Fold until only traces of flour mixture is visible.

7. Pour batter into pan and bake for 27-30 minutes @ 160 degree C. A toothpick inserted in the middle should come out with a few crumbs and may have some chocolate stuck to the bottom. As long as it’s not gooey, it’s done. Then let cool completely.

Chocolate cookies

Ingredients
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup (1 stick) salted butter, very soft
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon table salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 200 degree for 10 minutes.
2. Mix together the two sugars. Be sure to break apart any hard chunks of brown sugar and get the two sugars fully mixed. We prefer dark brown sugar because we think it has a deeper, more caramel flavor, but light brown sugar will make your cookies taste a bit sweeter.
3. Mix the softened butter into the sugar in globs. This helps really incorporate the butter and the sugar.
4. Mix in the eggs one at a time. Crack the eggs directly into the bowl with the butter-sugar mix, and then use your spoon to lightly beat the eggs before stirring them into the butter and sugar.
5. Measure and mix in the vanilla, salt, and baking soda. Mix the batter as much as possible right now. Break apart any remaining clumps and make sure the batter is a consistent color throughout.
6. Add the flour all at once. At this point, you want to mix the batter as little as possible to avoid forming too much gluten. Stop mixing as soon as there is no more visible flour on the dough or in the bottom of the bowl.
7. Add the chocolate chips all at once and use a folding motion to incorporate them into the batter.
8. Scoop the batter onto your baking sheet, spacing the balls of dough roughly 2 inches apart. We use a tablespoon and measure out slightly rounded balls - they're about the size of pingpong balls. You can certainly go larger or smaller as you prefer!
9. Bake the cookies for 9-11 minutes. Take them out when they look puffy, are set around the edges, and dry to the touch. Let them cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet. As they cool, they will collapse back on themselves.
10. Transfer the cookies to a rack to finish cooling completely. Bake the rest of the cookies in batches.
