Steps
Melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in a double boiler, or the microwave.
In a large bowl, combine the melted chocolate with the butter, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla until smooth. Cool the mixture for 15 minutes, until room temperature.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Stir into the wet mixture.
Add dark and milk chocolate chips, and stir to combine.
Spoon onto cookie sheets lined with parchment paper or silicone mats. Chill for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350°F. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until puffed and set to touch.
Cool for 1-2 minutes on the baking sheets before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.

Sherry on 2021-11-11 (5 stars): My cousin made these and I still dream about them! What brand of chocolate chips do you use? I asked her but she couldn't remember and I am sure it makes a difference. Would appreciate any recommendations from you, since it is after all your recipe.
Toni Jones on 2024-02-13 (5 stars): Yes, you do use 2 eggs. I got this exact recipe from somewhere else long ago and they are delicious. My tweak is to add 1 teaspoon of instant espresso coffee to the flour. This ramps up the chocolate flavor. I prefer all semisweet chocolate so that's how I make mine. I add 1 1/2 cups toasted walnuts or pecans. My recipe also calls for spreading batter into a lightly greased 13 x 9 pan, and baking at 350° for 15 minutes. Cool completely before cutting into small squares.
Petunia53 on 2024-12-09 (5 stars): I was thinking that I rarely have room in my fridge to put a whole cookie sheet of unbaked cookies in my refrigerator to cool, so I’m glad to hear that you just cooled the batter first and it still worked out well.
