Ingredients

4 large eggs
1 1/2 cups sugar
16 ounces chocolate (semi-sweet) semi-sweet, melted and cooled
1/4 cup butter softened
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon espresso, brewed strong
1/2 cup cake flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder double-acting
2 1/2 cups chocolate (semi-sweet) semi-sweet chips
1 cup walnuts chopped

Directions

In the bowl of an electric mixer beat the eggs and the sugar for 4 to 6 minutes, or until the mixture is thick and pale.

Add melted chocolate, butter, vanilla, espresso, flour, salt and the baking powder, and beat the mixture on the lowest setting until it is combined well.

Add the chocolate chips and the walnuts and beat the dough until it is combined well.

In a sheet of parchment paper, form the dough into a log, 4 inches in diameter.

Wrap it in wax paper, and chill it for 3 hours, or until it is firm.

Cut the log into 1-inch-thick rounds, arrange the rounds 2 inches apart on baking sheets lined with parchment paper.

Bake them in batches in the middle of a preheated 350F oven for 15 minutes, or until the tops are shiny and cracked slightly.

Transfer the baking sheets to racks and let the cookies cool completely before removing them from the sheets.

Baked Sole with Lemon Sauce

This was a little hard to do.I found that the recipe was poorly layed out. But If you add dill to the fish when you bake it this recipe is well worth it. And do not make the sauce more then 15 min before use or it will thickin and clomp.
