Triple Chocolate Cookies


When you need a good boost of chocolate like I did this week, this is the cookie recipe you want. It is sweet, delicious, doubles beautifully, and freeze fabulously! Life is good when these are in the freezer!

Triple Chocolate Cookies

1 cup margarine or butter
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
2 tsp vanilla
1 egg
1/3 cup cocoa
1 2/3 cup flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 cup chocolate chips of your choice
1 cup chocolate chips another of your favorite, but different that the one you already used!

(when I made the cookies this week I used semi-sweet and milk chocolate chips, yum! My MIL always uses white chocolate chips and milk chocolate and throws in a cup of nuts if we will not be around).

Cream margarine.

Add sugars, egg and vanilla.

On low speed blend in the dry ingredients.

Mix in chips.

Drop heaping spoonfuls on your cookie sheet and bake at 350F for 8-10 minutes.

Usually makes about 4 dozen cookies that freeze wonderfully - provided they don't disappear immediately.....
