QUADRUPLE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE BROWNIES

2 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature
2 cups flour
2/3 cup dutch process cocoa
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 lb semisweet chocolate chips
2 cups light brown sugar, firmly packed
4 lg eggs
2 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 1/3 cup white chocolate chips
2/3 cup milk chocolate chips (OR more semisweet)

preheat oven to 350°.

in a double-boiler, melt the pound of semisweet chocolate. set aside to cool, stirring occasionally.

in your mixer, using the paddle attachment, cream together the butter & brown sugar. add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. add the vanilla extract. add the cooled chocolate to the mixture & blend. be sure to scrape down the sides & bottom of the bowl to ensure the mixture is uniform.

add half of the flour & combine on low speed. then add remaining flour & mix until the batter comes together.

add the chocolate morsels.

line a baking sheet with parchment or a silpat, & drop spoonfuls of the cookie batter onto the sheet.

bake the cookies for approximately 7-9 minutes until puffy. be careful not to overbake these. (think of baking them like a brownie. if they don't seem done when you initially take them out of the oven, give them time to set. this is how they should look. they will be moist & delicious). allow the cookies to cool & firm upon the baking sheet for a few minutes before attempting to move them to a wire rack.
