Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Line a
baking sheet with parchment. Combine
butter and unsweetened chocolate in a
microwave-safe bowl, and microwave on
high for 2 minutes. Stir until melted. If
the chocolate is not completely melted,
cook in 30-second increments, stirring
each time until smooth. Set aside.
Combine flour, cocoa powder, cin-
namon, chili powder, baking soda, salt
and cayenne pepper, and whisk well. Set
aside. Combine both sugars, vanilla and
eggs in a large bowl and, using an elec-
tric mixer, mix until well combined. Add
the chocolate mixture, and continue to
mix until uniform.
Add the flour mixture, and mix until
just combined. Stir in the chocolate
chips until just combined.
Make a test cookie: Drop one cookie
onto the prepared baking sheet (use
a 3/4-oz. ice cream scoop if you have
one, or form the cookies into 1 1/2-inch
balls, flattening them slightly onto the
baking sheet). Bake 12-15 minutes. If
the cookies flatten while baking, repeat
with remaining batter. If the cookies
don't flatten, use your wet hand to flat-
ten the cookies slightly before baking.
Makes 2-3 dozen cookies.
