I had a hankering for some cookies today and so I decided to build on an old favorite. I used a triple chocolate cookie recipe as my base and added some leftovers from my pantry. They were FABULOUS!
Preheat oven to 375. In a small bowl, combine:
- 2 1/4 cups flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
and set aside. In your mixer, combine:
- 2 sticks butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 1 tablespoon vanilla
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa
until well combined. Slowly add the flour mixture. Then stir in:
- 1 package of chocolate chips or 2 chopped candy bars or m&m’s
- 1 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
I had a 1/2 bag of Heath Toffee Bits and 1/2 bag of white chocolate chips and added both. Spoon onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 10-12 minutes. Cool on cookie rack. Eat!
