Dark Chocolate Whopper Recipes

MAIDA HEATTER'S DOUBLE CHOCOLATE WHOPPER COOKIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 (175C) degrees with rack in the center. Line 2 large rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Place the chopped chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl set over a medium saucepan of simmering water. Stir gently until melted and smooth. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly.
• Whisk the flour in a small bowl with salt and baking powder.
• Beat the eggs, sugar, espresso and vanilla in a large bowl using an electric mixer on high speed until light and lofty, 2 or 3 minutes.
• Drizzle in the melted chocolate on low speed until blended. Add the flour mixture and mix until incorporated. Turn off the mixer and stir in the chocolate chips and nuts.
• Use a 1/3-cup measure to scoop the dough into 6 mounds on each of the prepared baking sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart. Use a small spatula to scrape the dough out - it's a little gooey.
• Bake one sheet at a time for 17 minutes. The tops of the cookies should look dry and shiny. Cool the cookies on the pan for 15 minutes, then transfer with a spatula to a wire rack cool completely.

HOMEMADE WHOPPER CANDY -- MALTED

Steps:

• Melt white chocolate and mix in malted milk powder.
• Shape into 1" balls.
• If your balls turn into patties, add more malt.
• Dip in melted chocolate and allow to set.
• Note: Sometimes these turn out as malt patties rather than perfect balls.
• Don't worry.
• They still taste like Whoppers.
