Last week my lil guy{& gal} wanted a treat! It's actually rare that they will speak up and say they want something sweet! So I set out to make something quick, easy and chocolatey! I grabbed a few ingredients from my pantry and went to work! Initially I was going to pat the finished dough into a baking dish for brownies. Well, right before I was about to do so, I heard my Ace man yell, "NOOOOOO! I wanted you to make cookies!" So truthfully, we have him to thank for these irresistible little gems{cookies} of joy!:) They come out of the oven with a yummy, slightly gooey chocolate center so by all means, eat them that way if you'd prefer! But upon cooling, the center turns dense and almost fudge-like, and just as yummy in my opinion! They were a big time hit with my little ones too! Ace, after finishing one gem, came back to the counter and asked for another! This happened 4 times and yes, he would come asking for another one with his mouth still full from the last!:)
Here's what you need:
In the bowl of your stand mixer, beat together:
2 eggs
2/3 cup granulated sugar
Add and mix in:
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/3 cup cocoa powder
Add and slightly combine:
1 1/2 cups flour
Pour and mix in:
1 stick salted butter, melted
Add and mix in:
1/2 a bag of white chocolate chips
On parchment covered cookie sheets, drop dough by heaping tablespoonfuls. Then into a 350 degree oven for 8-10 minutes! Makes 24-25 2 inch round cookies!
