I googled what you were looking for and this is what I found.

Chocolate Challenge Cookies

1 ounce unsweetened chocolate 1/4 cup (1/8 lb.) butter or margarine 1 tablespoon finely ground coffee beans 1/2 cup sugar 3/4 cup all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking powder 2 tablespoons milk 1 teaspoon vanilla 1/4 cup sweetened shredded dried coconut 1/4 cup white chocolate chips

Chop unsweetened chocolate and butter into small pieces. Combine with ground coffee in a metal bowl; nest bowl over hot water and stir often until mixture is smoothly melted. Or put mixture in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in a microwave oven on 1/2 power (50 percent), stirring at 30-second intervals, until smoothly melted.

In a bowl, stir together sugar, flour, and baking powder. Add chocolate mixture, milk, vanilla, coconut, and white chocolate chips; stir to mix well. Shape dough into 24 equal-size (about 1-in.) balls. Set balls about 3 inches apart on a lightly oiled 12- by 15-inch baking sheet. With your palm, flatten balls to about 1/2 inch thick. Bake in a 358 [degrees] oven until cookies feel firm at edges when lightly touched, 10 to 12 minutes. Let coot at least 10 minutes on pan (cookies tear when hot), then transfer with a spatula to racks to cool. Serve, or store airtight in the refrigerator up to 5 days; freeze to store longer. Makes 2 dozen.
