Yield Makes 2 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
8 ounces semisweet chocolate, finely chopped
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
2/3 cup packed light-brown sugar

Stir in flour mixture with a flexible spatula, then fold in 1 cup walnuts. Refrigerate until dough is just firm, about 30 minutes.
