Triple C Cookies
Original Recipe
1 cup butter
1 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 cup flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1 1/2 cup chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream together butter and sugar. Add eggs and vanilla and stir until combined. Sift together all the dry ingredients and slowly add to the wet ingredients, mixing until well combined. Add chocolate chips and stir until well combined.
Drop the dough onto a cookie sheet by the spoonful, at least 2 inches apart. Place in oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, until edges are firm. Cool for 5 minutes on pan, then cool completely on a wire rack. Store in airtight container.
My Notes:
Triple C stands for chocolate chocolate chip, in case you were wondering.
Yeah... these cookies didn't turn out exactly how I wanted them to. It was an experiment, combining three different recipes. I was running low on granulated sugar, so I did a 3:1 ratio of brown sugar to white sugar. Then, I realized about halfway through that the one recipe I was following didn't have any flour in it, and its hard to have cookies without flour. So, I added a cup of flour. And I looked in horror when they came out of the oven spread out like pancakes. Seriously... incredibly thin pancakes.
My roommate tried them, and loved them, and I called over the guy next door (one of our classmates) and he liked them too. So they're not bad tasting. They're just weird. I think they might make better brownies than cookies. I'll either have to rename them or fiddle with the recipe. If you have any suggestions, let me know :)
