Julia's Double Rich Chocolate Cookies by Lynne B.


 2 ½ Cups of flour (I add 2 extra Tbsp for living in Utah helps them to not be flat!)
¼ tsp baking soda
¼ tsp salt
½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 cup dark brown sugar, packed
¾ cup white sugar
1 cup salted butter, softened
3 large eggs
1 tsp pure vanilla (vanilla extract is fine)
2 cups semi sweet chocolate chips (I also like to add white chocolate chips as it makes it pretty! Totally optional)
Preheat oven to 300* (yes they cook longer on a lower heat)

In a medium bowl combine flour, soda, salt and cocoa powder. Mix well with a wire whisk and set aside.
In a large bowl blend sugars at medium speed, Add butter and beat to form a grainy paste, scrape downs sides of bowl, (no really it actually says that in the recipe.... duh right?) then add eggs and Vanilla. Beat at medium speed until light and fluffy.
Add flour mixture and chocolate chips and blend at low speed just until combined. DO NOT OVERMIX! 

Drop dough by rounded tablespoons onto un greased cookie sheet 1 ½ inches apart bake for 21 mins
