Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookies

Another favorite recipe that I made a few months ago. A good recipe for the chocoholic.

Chocolate Chocolate Chip cookies

• 1/2 c butter, melted
• 1c flour
• 3/8 c. cocoa
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• pinch of salt
• 1c white sugar or 1/2 each of white and brown sugar
• 1 egg
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1c chocolate chips
• 1/4 c chopped peanuts, if desired

Preheat oven to 350 F. While butter is melting (you can use a double boiler or just the microwave), combine flour, cocoa, soda and salt in a medium bowl, and set aside. In a larger bowl, blend butter, sugar, and egg until creamy. Stir in vanilla, then add dry ingredients. Fold in chips & nuts. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto an ungreased baking sheet, and bake for 8-10 minutes. Leave to cool on pan for 5 minutes (cookies will be soft out of the oven) before transferring to a wire rack.
