Double Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients

  • 2 sticks (1 cup) butter (or for firmer dough, ½ cup butter, ½ cup shortening)
  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar (or half brown sugar (packed) and half granulated sugar)
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tsp. real vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder (we love Hersheys). You can also use 2/3 cup up to ¾ cup for a richer flavor.
  • 2 cups flour (all-purpose) *note- if dough seems too sticky, you may add in an additional tablespoon or two.
  • ¾ tsp. baking soda
  • ¼ tsp. salt
  • 2 cups (or one bag) chocolate chips (semi-sweet, milk chocolate, white chocolate- whatever you like)

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 F for 10 minutes (oven temps may vary- I have to bake mine at 375 F, but my oven is also …*ahem*… 50. Years.Old.)
  2. In a large bowl, beat together butter, sugar, eggs and vanilla on medium speed until well-mixed and fluffy.
  3. Combine all dry ingredients and add to the butter mixture.
  4. Beat mixture thoroughly until combined.
  5. Mix in the chips.
  6. Use a tablespoon for large cookies or teaspoon for small; drop by rounded spoonfuls onto an ungreased cookie sheet.
  7. Bake 11-13 minutes for larger cookies, or 8-10 for smaller, until they are firm around the edges.
  8. Let cool for a minute or two on the cookie sheet, then remove and finish cooling on a baking rack. *You can adjust the recipe for your own tastes.
