Rich Chocolate Cookies
Makes 20
Ingredients
125g butter, chopped
200g dark chocolate, roughly chopped
1 cup brown sugar
3 eggs, beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla essence
3/4 cup plain flour
3/4 cup self-raising flour
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1 cup walnuts, roughly chopped
Method
Place butter and chocolate in a saucepan over low heat. Stir for 3 minutes or until melted (see shortcut). Remove from heat and transfer immediately to a bowl.
Add sugar, eggs and vanilla. Mix well. Sift flours and cocoa over mixture. Add walnuts. Stir to combine. Refrigerate for 1 hour or until firm enough to roll.
Preheat oven to 180?C. Roll heaped tablespoonfuls of mixture into balls and place 3cm apart on lined baking trays. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, swapping trays after 8 minutes, or until biscuits are cracked on top. (Cookies will firm on cooling and stay fudgy inside.)
Cool on trays for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve.
Notes & tips
Shortcut: Place butter and chocolate in a heatproof, microwave-safe bowl. Heat, uncovered, on HIGH (100%) for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring every minute with a metal spoon, or until melted and smooth.

Surprise Cookies
To stack cookies, wait until frosting dries, then place waxed paper in between the layers to keep the frosting from smearing.
Ingredients
Makes about 2 dozen
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
1 cup sugar
1 large egg
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
12 large marshmallows, cut in half horizontally
Chocolate Frosting for Surprise Cookies (see below)
Directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add egg, milk, and vanilla, and beat until well combined. Add reserved flour mixture; mix on low speed until combined.
Using a tablespoon or 1 3/4-inch ice cream scoop, drop dough onto ungreased baking sheets, about 2 inches apart.
Bake until cookies begin to spread and become firm, 10 to 12 minutes.
Remove baking sheets from oven, and place a marshmallow, cut-side down, in the center of each cookie, pressing down slightly. Return to oven, and continue baking until marshmallows begins to melt, 2 to 2 1/2 minutes. Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely before frosting.
Spread about 1 tablespoon of frosting over each marshmallow, starting in the center and continuing outward until marshmallow is covered.
