Fudge Brownie Cookiesmakes 2 dozen
1/4 cup butter, cut into pieces
1 cup all purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp kosher salt
1 egg
3/4 cup dark brown sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla bean paste
1 1/3 cups semisweet chocolate morsels, divided
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Microwave the bittersweet morsels & the butter in a small glass bowl on HIGH 1 minute, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth. Cool 5 minutes. Whisk together the flour, the baking powder & the salt in a small bowl. Set aside.
Beat the egg, the brown sugar & the vanilla bean paste in a heavy-duty stand mixer with a paddle attachment 1 minute or until blended. Add the melted chocolate mixture & blend just until combined, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Add the flour mixture & 1 cup semisweet chocolate morsels then mix on Low speed until blended & thickened, about 30 seconds. Portion the dough into 24 pieces using a standard cookie scoop. Place 2-inches apart on parchment paper-lined half sheet pans. Slightly flatten the mounds of dough using your fingers into 2-inch discs. Top with the remaining 1/3 cup semisweet chocolate morsels, pressing them into the dough. Bake 8 to 9 minutes or until the centers of the cookies are just set. Do not over bake. Cool completely.
