Doubly Chocolate Cookies

[minxybaby]

These cookies were excellent! It's a double chocolate recipe, but I chose this one because I wanted something chocolatey, but didn't have chocolate chips, so we made chocolate peanut butter chip cookies. They are very moist, soft, and brownie-like. Holy freakin' awesome stuff! Normally I use real unsalted butter for baking, but I didn't have any so I used the cheapest margarine ever and they still turned out so so sooooo good!

Doubly Chocolate Cookies

Yield: about 4-1/2 dozen cookies (I got exactly 5 dozen)

INGREDIENTS

1 cup butter or margarine, softened (I used cheap margarine with fantastic results)
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 cups all-purpose flour
2/3 cup cocoa
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 package (350 g / 2 cups) CHIPITS® Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips (I used a bag of CHIPITS Peanut Butter Chips)
1/2 cup coarsely chopped nuts (optional) (I did not use)

DIRECTIONS

Heat oven to 350°F (180°C).

In large bowl, beat butter and sugar until fluffy. Beat in eggs and vanilla until creamy.

In medium bowl, mix together flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt. Gradually add to butter mixture, beating well. Stir in semi-sweet chocolate chips and nuts, if desired. Drop by rounded teaspoons onto ungreased cookie sheet.

Bake 8 to 10 minutes or just until set. Cool slightly; remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. Cool completely.

It made sooo many cookies. lol We couldn't eat them all. After a few days, I ground up what cookies were left into crumbs, added some melted butter, mixed it up and pressed it into a pie plate, topped with sliced bananas, added a layer of pudding, and then some whipped cream and we had a nice easy pie. :)

Thanks for the recipe. I will make them tomorrow morning and take some to crib. We really shouldn't be eating this stuff, but what the heck, too late now not to.

I'm for sure going to try this one sometime... maybe when my other batch of cookies I made is all gone. (I made cookies instead of cleaning the house yesterday, mostly because I thought that would be more fun then cleaning)
