This is a simple cookie that my family loves. Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups butter, softened |
4 cups white sugar |
4 eggs |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 teaspoon peppermint extract |
4 cups all-purpose flour |
1 1/2 cups unsweetened cocoa powder |
2 teaspoons baking soda |
1 teaspoon salt |
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Cream together, butter, sugar and eggs. Mix in remaining ingredients. Blend well.
3. Drop by teaspoonful onto a cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 8-9 minutes. Cookies will be soft. Cool about 1 minute on cookie sheet then remove to a wire rack to cool completely.
4. Recipe Variation: For a different flavor, omit peppermint extract and use a total of 2 teaspoons of vanilla. Also substitute peanut butter flavored chips for the chocolate chips.
