Best cookies E.V.E.R!!!

These are from a recipe I got from the Times awhile back; it appeared again on their "Best of 2002" list. It originates from a bakery in Vancouver called Senses Bakery and is flourless.

Ingredients (I double the recipe because the 1X is small):

* 1 pound bittersweet or semisweet chocolate, preferably 70% cocoa (I'm using a pound plus here)
* 6 tablespoons butter
* 4 eggs
* 2/3 cup sugar
* 1 1/2 cup ground almonds (I used 1.5 cup preground hazelnut meal, from Trader Joes)
* More sugar, and powdered sugar for garnish

347 view(s) I cut the butter into pats, about 1 tablespoon each, before tossing into the chocolate.

363 view(s) OK, once that's all melted, fold into the egg mixture. I switch to the paddle attachment and slowly add the chocolate while mixing on low.

345 view(s) Once finished mixing in, throw in the ground nut and mix thoroughly. It should look like this. Put this into the fridge overnight.

330 view(s) Now for the messy part: take a small scoop, about 2 tablespoons, and roll into a ball (should be about the size of a ping pong ball). Roll in granulated sugar.

384 view(s) Messy part. I tried dunking my hands in ice water periodically, I don't think it helped much. Also not helping much is the heat wave we're currently experiencing.

369 view(s) Sprinkle with sifted powdered sugar when slightly cool.

All told, I get a yield of about 24-30 cookies from a double batch. The original recipe says it makes about 36, so I must make them large or something.

These are excellent with coffee.

eferreee

The ingredients:

2 sticks (8 oz) soft butter
1.5 cups firmly packed brown sugar
4 large eggs
3 really ripe bananas
2.5 cups flour
0.5 teaspoon salt
1.5 teaspoons baking powder
6 oz chopped walnuts
4 oz blueberries

<h3+//guvoW> 2005-08-07 23:56:34 UTC

325 view(s) Begin by heating the oven to 350F.

In a mixer, beat the butter and brown sugar. If the butter isn't soft (I actually remembered to leave it out this time), you can microwave it - no big deal. The recipe calls for light brown sugar, I used dark - whatever.

<h3+//guvoW> 2005-08-07 23:56:34 UTC

313 view(s) While that is beating on medium for about 3-5 minutes, I chopped the walnuts in a food processor.

>>58 Name: h3

<h3+//guvoW> 2005-08-07 23:56:34 UTC

313 view(s) Add the eggs to the butter/sugar two at time, mixing completely between. All told, I probably let this stuff mix for about 10 minutes.

>>59 Name: h3

<h3+//guvoW> 2005-08-07 23:56:35 UTC

312 view(s) Mash the bananas while the last of the eggs are mixing in. The riper the better because it gets sweeter.

>>60 Name: h3

<h3+//guvoW> 2005-08-07 23:56:35 UTC

317 view(s) After mixing the bananas in, it starts to look like vomit.

Then, add the dry ingredients (flour, salt, baking powder, and nuts). Mix some more on slow.

<h3+//guvoW> 2005-08-07 23:56:35 UTC

304 view(s) Throw in the blueberries and stir by hand so as not to crush them.

Why are blueberries so expensive? The recipe doesn't actually call for blueberries but I like to add them.

<h3+//guvoW> 2005-08-07 23:56:35 UTC

292 view(s) The recipe calls for pouring the batter into a loaf pan, but I can never get it to fit in one pan. Maybe I have non-standard pans or something.

Anyway, it comes out just fine in a regular baking pan.

>>63 Name: h3

<h3+//guvoW> 2005-08-07 23:56:36 UTC

309 view(s) Bake for 45-50 minutes (toothpick should come out clean), and let rest for about 30 minutes to cool and settle before turning it out.

Yum! It's really good if you toast slices and top with vanilla ice cream.
