Double-Chocolate Espresso Cookies

Serves: 3 dozen cookies

- In a small saucepan, melt the unsweetened chocolate, 1 cup chocolate chips and butter with coffee granules; stir until smooth. Remove from the heat; set aside to cool.

- In a small mixing bowl, beat up sugar and eggs for 3 minutes until thick and lemon-colored. Beat in the chocolate mixture. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt; add to chocolate mixture. Stir in remaining chocolate chips.

- Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls 2 inches apart onto greased baking sheets. Bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes or until puffed and tops are cracked. Cool for 5 minutes before removing to wire racks.

Then enjoy!
