Semisweet Chocolate Chunk Brownie Cookies
Ingredients
3/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
5 ounces semisweet chocolate (53 - 62% cocoa mass), finely chopped
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs, at room temperature
6 ounces semisweet chocolate (53 - 62%) bars, cut into 1/4" chunks
2 tablespoons cacao nibs
Preparation
1. Make cookies: Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 375°F. Line 3 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. Put flour, baking powder and salt in medium bowl. Stir with wire whisk to blend. Set aside.
3. Melt chocolate according to directions.
4. In bowl of electric mixer, using paddle attachment, beat butter and sugars on medium speed for about 5 minutes, or until lighter in color and fluffy. Beat in vanilla extract. Scrape down sides of bowl. Add eggs, one at a time, beating for 30 seconds after each addition and stopping to scrape down sides of bowl as necessary. Add melted chocolate and beat until blended. Reduce speed to low and add half of flour mixture. Beat just until absorbed. Remove bowl from mixer stand and, using large rubber spatula, fold in remaining flour, then chocolate chunks and nibs. Let batter rest for about 10 minutes to thicken slightly.
5. Drop dough in 2-tablespoon-sized mounds (preferably using small ice cream scoop) onto one lined baking sheet, making sure mounds do not touch each other. Lightly cover with plastic wrap and chill for about 2 hours (or up to 8 hours), until very firm.
6. Remove 9 chilled mounds from refrigerator and transfer to another lined baking sheet, spacing cookies about 2" apart. Bake cookies for 8 to 10 minutes, or until tops are puffed and slightly cracked and have a dull sheen, but are not wet looking. Slide paper off baking sheet and transfer to wire rack. Allow cookies to cool completely before detaching from paper. Do not overbake or cookies will be dry.
7. Repeat previous step with remaining cookies, keeping last batch on original baking sheet and spacing cookies 2" apart.

Flavonoids, also found in wine are types of pigments that are water-soluble and created by plants of many varieties. There are thousands of different flavanoids. Plants use flavonoids in the process of photosynthesis.
How the human body actually uses and/or processes flavonoids is still not determined but they have been linked to good health in many areas - particularly blood circulation.
If you are a science buff, then you'll be interested to know that flavonoids are polyphenolic compounds containing 15 carbon atoms, two benzene rings joined by a linear three carbon chain. If you're just an average, everyday person with a sweet tooth, then you'll be interested to know that good things are contained in a single bite of dark chocolate. So please, put down the chemistry book and enjoy some today!
