Things You'll Need:
- 2½ Cups All Purpose Flour
- ⅓ Cup Cocoa
- 1 Tsp. Baking Soda
- 1 Tsp. Salt
- 1 Cup Softened Butter: 2 sticks
- 1 Cup Sugar
- ¾ Cup Brown Sugar firmly packed
- 1 Tsp Vanilla Extract
- 2 Eggs
- 12 oz package of chocolate chips
-
Step 1
Mix flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl until cocoa is evenly distributed. It will turn a gray color.
-
Step 2
Beat butter and sugar with an electric mixer on high until it gets creamy. Add brown sugar, vanilla extract and both eggs separately, and beat in until creamy.
-
Step 3
Gradually add flour mixture and beat into dough.
-
Step 4
Stir in a 12 oz package of chocolate chips with a spoon. Make it your own by adding chocolate candies or nuts, or by substituting chocolate chunks for the chips. Decorate with colored candies for holidays.
-
Step 5
Spoon golf-ball size dough balls onto cookie sheets about two inches apart. A 15 by 14 inch cookie sheet will hold a dozen cookies.
-
Step 6
Bake at 375 for 10 minutes. In high altitudes bake at 350 for 9 minutes.
-
Step 7
Use a steel spatula to gently press cookies flat and transfer them to a wire rack for cooling. Your chocolate chocolate chip cookies will be soft and limp. When cooled they should be chewy.
