• in a microwave-safe bowl, combine 1/2 cup of chocolate chips and butter. heat for 1 minute at full power, stir and then continue to heat at 20 second intervals, stirring between each until chocolate has melted. set aside to cool slightly.
• in a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, vanilla and sugar briskly until thick and pale, this may take a few minutes. stir in the chocolate mixture. combine the flour, baking powder, cocoa powder and salt; whisk into the batter just until blended. fold in the nuts, remaining chocolate chips and raisins. cover and chill dough for 1 hour.
• preheat the oven to 325 degrees f (175 degrees c). line baking sheets with parchment paper or grease lightly. scoop out heaping tablespoonfuls of dough and roll them into balls. place them 2 inches apart on the baking sheets and flatten slightly.
• bake in the preheated oven until slightly puffed and just set, 13 to 15 minutes. set the baking sheet on a cooling rack to cool. cookies will firm up as they cool.
