3/4 cup of white flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
6 ounces milk  chocolate, coarsely chopped
7 ounces dark chocolate, coarsely chopped
1 stick unsalted butter
6 large eggs
2 3/4 cups sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Using a glass bowl that will sit on top of the saucepan, melt the chopped milk chocolate, chopped dark chocolate and the butter over low heat, stirring constantly under the chocolate is all melted and the butter is incorporated. Take it off the store and let it cook slightly.

4. Using a hand mixer beat together the eggs, sugar and vanilla on medium-high speed until light in texture and thick should take about 3 to 4 minutes.

5. To this mixture now add the chocolate mixture and blend thoroughly.

6. Once that is mixed, take the dry ingredients you made earlier and incorporate until the ingredients are thoroughly combined. Throw in your chocolate Pebbles and fold through, no need to blend. It will be nice to have little bites of chocolate when you bit into your cookies.
