Ingredients
  

  • 140 grams dark chocolate chopped
  • 3 tablespoons or 42 grams unsalted butter
  • 6 tablespoons or 48 grams all purpose flour / maida
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • pinch of salt ( omit if using salted butter)
  • 1/2 cup or 100 grams brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tablespoon coffee
  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate or chocolate chips (optional)
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla

Instructions
 

  • Melt the chopped chocolate and butter together in a microwave or saucepan. Let cool for few minutes.
  • Sift or mix the dry ingredients that is flour, salt and baking powder together in another bowl. Keep aside.
  • Beat together the sugar, egg, vanilla and coffee for a few minutes using beaters or a whisk until its light brown and slightly frothy.
  • Add the chocolate-butter mixture and mix until smooth
  • Add the flour mixture and mix until you can't see flour anymore.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips if using.
  • The dough will be like a thick batter like brownie batter.
  • Chill for half hour or so until firm enough to handle.
  • Preheat oven to 180 degrees celsius. Make balls of around 2 inch diameter and place on an unlined and ungreased baking tray, Keep around 2 inches between them as these cookies spread a lot.
  • Bake 10-13 minutes at 180 C( I did 12 ) until brownies are dry and have cracks on top. They ll still be soft. Cool on tray for 3 minutes and transfer to rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • The cookies will be puffed up when you get them out of the oven but will flatten out with that beautiful uneven surface as it cool.
  • Be careful as they are pretty crumbly until cool.
  • 2 inch dough balls yielded 16 cookies of around 4 inches diameter.
