Not sure if this is the one you want but it came up when I googled it. It is from the radio Live show
125g butter 1 cup packed brown sugar 1 egg 1/2 cup sour cream 1 tsp vanilla extract 125g dark chocolate, melted 1 3/4 cups flour 1/2 tsp salt 1/2 tsp baking powder 1/2 tsp baking soda 1/2 cup chopped walnuts 1/2 cup chopped glace cherries 125g dark chocolate, chopped into pieces
Method
Beat butter and sugar until pale and creamy.
Add egg and beat well.
Mix in sour cream, vanilla and melted chocolate and then mix in flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, walnuts, cherries and chocolate pieces.
Refrigerate dough for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 180 C. Place spoonfuls of dough onto a greased or lined cold baking tray and bake for 10-12 minutes until firm.
Cool cookies on a wire rack and then store in an airtight container.

I dont think thats the one but thankyou :-) From what i can remember it was a dark chocolate fudgey biscuit with either white chocolate or some kind of white nut in it. Tried googling as well but couldnt find it.
That looks wonderful but i've only seen this particular recipe (that i'm after). in that book. And didn't want to buy a whole book for one recipe! lol tho i'm sure i'd bake other stuff. But just want THAT recipe! :-)

Ive seen that recipe before but thought it was different to the one in the book! Does anyone have the book and can at least confirm if it's the same one. I was put off by that recipe because of the amount of sugar

Chances are if it is. it's out. Was going to make them tonight but maybe another time now :-) or if no one replies with the actual recipe then maybe i'll try the one on the website and cut down the sugar.

The above cookies are fudgy and really good when eaten warm from the oven.If you make the dough you can then refrigerate or freeze it and then cook it for warm cookies as required.
