Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cooking Time: 8-10 minutes

Serves: 18-20

This is one of the first recipes I ever made in a professional kitchen. They are a little finicky but so simple and good. They make great ice cream sandwiches or a topping for a sundae…

Ingredients

2 -1/2 ounces  (about ½ cup plus 1 tablespoon) semi sweet chocolate, roughly chopped

1 -1/2 ounces (about 1/3 cup) unsweetened chocolate, roughly chopped

3 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces, plus more for greasing the pans

1 large egg

1/3 cup sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla

1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons all-purpose flour

 

Sandwiches:

1 pint vanilla ice cream

½ cup melted semi sweet chocolate (optional)

1/8 teaspoon baking powder

½ teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease two baking sheets with butter.
  2. Melt chocolate and butter: In a medium metal bowl, combine the chocolates and butter. Create a makeshift double boiler by filling a pot that will hold the bowl snuggly with 1 inch of water. Set the bowl of chocolates and butter on the pot, water simmering, stirring with a heatproof spatula from time to time, until melted. Remove from the heat.
  3. Make the batter: In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, beat the egg on high speed about 1 minute. Add the sugar and vanilla and beat on high until the mixture becomes a pale yellow color, about 5 minutes. Using a rubber spatula, add the chocolate mixture and gently mix to blend. Sift the flour, baking powder, and salt into the chocolate mixture.
  4. Bake the cookies: Drop scant tablespoons of the cookie batter onto the baking sheets, leaving about 1½ inches between each for the cookies to spread as they cook. You should have about 18 cookies total. Bake for 4 minutes; rotate the pan from front to back, and bake until they spread and crack slightly but still look moist and chewy, an additional 4 minutes. Let the cookies cool and transfer to a rack.
  5. Sandwiches: Sandwich the cookies with vanilla ice cream. To be extra fancy, dip the flat side of each cooled cookie in melted chocolate before assembling sandwiches.
