Double the chocolate, double the fun!

This was supposed to be last weeks post, but I ran a little short on time, so this week is Double post time!

Today we have Chocolate White Chocolate Chip Cookies. Sounds good already, doesn't it?

Now, this recipe is much easier to mix with a machine, but seem to get a kick out of getting hand cramps. I usually ignore my shiny mixer for a good old fashioned wooden spoon. Please use some of the sense that I am clearly lacking and use an electric mixer.

On to the recipe!

Ingredients:
1 cup butter, softened (salted, if using unsalted, add 1 tsp salt to flour)
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 cups (or 1 12 oz bag) white chocolate chips

Anyhow, you'll want to start with creaming the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then add the vanilla.

In a sperate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda (and salt if needed.)

Add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture and stir until just combined, mix in the chocolate chips.

It should look something like this:
Maybe not quite as appetizing as the last chocolate chip cookie dough, but just you wait.

You can make mini cookies like these...

Or larger cookies for those times when you need a fix...
Any way you make them, they're always delicious.

Yum.
