Two kinds of chocolate, maple syrup and rum makes these cookies rich, dense and intense.

Ingredients

  • 15 oz. of bittersweet chocolate (mixed varieties if possible)
  • 2 oz. of unsweetened chocolate
  • 2 Tbs. of butter
  • 1/3 C. of maple syrup
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tsp. high-quality vanilla extract
  • 2/3 C. of cake flour
  • 1/2 tsp. of baking powder
  • 1 C. pecans
  • 2-3 Tbs. of Myers Rum (optional)

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Melt both types of chocolate and the butter in a microwave for 1 1/2-2 minutes (or double boiler) until melted when stirred together. Stir and blend in the maple syrup, egg, vanilla, and (optional) rum. Finely chop the pecans in a food processor and add to the chocolate mixture. Mix the cake flour and baking powder together, then add to the chocolate mixture, and stir until fully blended. Grease (with butter) a couple of cookie sheets, and use a Tbs. to drop portions of the batter on each sheet, at least an inch apart. Bake for 10 minutes. Cool on wire rack for at least 10-15 minutes (otherwise the cookies are too crumbly).
