Ingredients

  • 1 ounce unsweetened chocolate, chopped
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • unsalted butter, cubed
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 13 cup cocoa powder
  • 12 teaspoon baking powder
  • 12 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 quart butter pecan ice cream
  • 1 cup Fisher Pecan Halves, toasted and coarsely chopped

Method

  • Preheat oven to 375F Spray a baking sheet with nonstick spray.
  • Combine unsweetened chocolate, chocolate chips and butter in a medium microwave-safe glass bowl.
  • Microwave on HIGH 1 minute.
  • Stir well and return to microwave for 30 more seconds.
  • Stir until chocolate is completely melted.
  • Cool for 5 minutes.
  • In another bowl, whisk together the sugar, eggs and vanilla.
  • Set aside.
  • Separately, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt.
  • Stir the egg mixture into the cooled chocolate.
  • Add in the flour mixture.
  • Scoop the batter by scant 1/4 cup measures onto the prepared baking sheet (keeping the shapes round and about 2 inches in diameter).
  • Leave room between each one because they will spread as they bake.
  • Bake about 4 minutes.
  • If they seem a little soft in the centers, Leave in the oven an additional 1-2 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and allow them to cool 10-15 minutes before gently transferring them to a flat surface.
  • Sandwich 1/2 cup of ice cream between two of the chocolate rounds.
  • Roll the edges all around in the pecans.
  • Repeat for remaining rounds.
  • Serve immediately or freeze until ready to serve.
