Categories: Cookies, Chocolate, Nuts
     Yield: 20 servings

     1 lb Unsalted butter
    28 oz Semisweet chocolate chips;
          - separated
     6 oz Unsweetened chocolate
     6 lg Eggs
     3 tb Instant coffee granules
     2 tb Pure vanilla extract
 2 1/4 c  Sugar
     1 c  A-P flour; +1/4 c, separated
     1 tb Baking powder
     1 ts Salt
     3 c  Walnuts; chopped

 Set the oven @ 350°F/175°C.

 Grease and flour an 18x12x1" baking sheet.

 Melt the butter, 1 lb of chocolate chips and the unsweetened
 chocolate together in a medium heatproof bowl over simmering water.
 Stir continuously until the chocolate and butter are completely
 melted and come together into a very smooth mixture. Allow to cool
 slightly.

 In a large bowl, stir (do not beat) the eggs, coffee granules,
 vanilla and sugar. Pour the warm chocolate mixture into the egg
 mixture and allow to cool to room temperature.

 In a medium bowl, sift together 1 cup of flour, the baking powder
 and salt. Add to the cooled chocolate mixture. Toss the walnuts and
 12 oz of chocolate chips with the remaining 1/4 cup of flour, then
 add to the chocolate batter. Mix until everything just comes
 together and there are no bits of flour remaining.

 Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking sheet.

 Bake for 20 minutes, then pull the brownies from the oven and hit
 the baking sheet against the counter top once quickly, forcing the
 air to escape from between the pan and the brownie dough. (It's the
 same method used for pan-bang cookies.) Bake for about 15 more
 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. Don't overbake.

 Allow to cool thoroughly and refrigerate. Cut into 20 large squares
 to serve (or cut into smaller squares for more brownies).
