Another great thing about being at my parents' house is my mom's awesome kitchen, seriously it is like a dream kitchen and the creativity just flows there. I was tasked with baking my sweet grandma some cookies and my grandma is a chocolate-lover, hm.. I wonder if that is where I get my love of chocolate from? Anyways I decided upon baking her chocolate chocolate chip cookies. My parents raved about them when they came out of the oven and then when my grandma received them in the mail, and only 3 were broken, she raved about them too. So I suggest you make these cookies for those special people in your life and have them rave about how great these cookies are and you get all the credit ;-)
First, gather together your ingredients.
2 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 cup (2 sticks) butter, room temperature, 1 cup white sugar, 1 cup packed brown sugar, 2 large eggs, slightly beaten, 1 tablespoon vanilla extract, 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa, 2 cups chocolate chips (you could also use peanut butter chips, M&M's). Add 1 cup of walnuts if you want some crunch in your cookies.
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Put your butter in a mixing bowl and give it a good creaming with your mixer.
Add in the white and brown sugars and mix again.
Add in the eggs and vanilla to the butter and sugar mixture. Cream all these ingredients together.
Next add in the flour, baking soda and cocoa powder.
Give all the ingredients a good mix, scraping down the sides of your mixing bowl if necessary. Last, add in the chocolate chips or whatever nut or chocolate item you are using.
Roll out the dough into 1 inch balls and place them on your baking sheet about 2 inches a part,
they will spread out a bit.
Pop your cookies into the oven for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, pull the cookies out of then oven, let them cool slightly on the cookie sheet to set and then take them off the cookie sheet onto a rack to cool.
Then serve, eat and enjoy with a tall glass of ice cold milk!

I have got to get me one of those fancy mixers! Seriously, these look delish!
These are my FAVORITE cookies and no one makes them enough! I am buying a cookie scoop and making these over the holiday weekend.
Those look SO good. May have to try next time I'm in the mood to bake. The kitchen does make all the difference. Mine is so small and I don't have a dishwasher so I hate cooking in it.
you are so incredible. i love the way you are such THE baking queen to me. those look amazing.
i just want to jump through the screen and take them all!
Seriously, I need these cookies in my life immediately. My stomach's been growling since I woke up and there's no better cure than chocolate... especially double the chocolate. You have found the key to my heart :)

Oooh, those look delicious!! I also love my parents' kitchen - it's so much bigger than my apartment's and it's filled with all kinds of cooking necessities. I will have to try out this recipe as I am most definitely also a chocolholic.
Mmm...mmmm...mmmm..! if Elyse wasn't napping I'd be tempted to go get chocolate chips to make these right now! DELICIOUS!
YUM! Those look delish! I've only made chocolate chip cookies once...and I used the pre-made dough lol.
Isn't it funny how there are so many ways to make a classic like chocolate chip cookies?!! My dad has a recipe that looks similiar to yours (rich an dark)and they are the best cookies ever!
Get out of here with those yummy things! I would eat way too many!
Yum-o!! The hubs would LOVE these :) So glad I found your blog!!
I am glad i don't live near you I would be fatter. I also learned something yesterday while lying in the bed. I watched these french people making cookies, pastries etc and they said the key to mixing is not to add all the butter at one time. To add a little mix, a little and mix because the liquid ingredients cause the other ingredients to separate. Who'd a thunk it?
Yum, yum, yum!! I am so hungry right now and seeing these cookies is not fair!! They look delicious!
those look really yummy!! I can't bake from scratch...I have tried but they don't come out too well...cupcakes I can bake thou :)
Oh dear gracious, those look delicious!
I'm like, crying over how beautiful these cookies look! Is that weird?! :)
Those look yummy! Very similar to a recipe my mom uses, but she doesn't add as much cocoa. I'll try it for sure!
These cookies look soooo good!!
My grandmother makes something similar and they are amazing!
