Chocolate Chocolate Chunk Cookies

I really enjoy these cookies. It's almost like eating a brownie, 

especially when you make them big.

They were a favorite and huge seller on our lunch menu back when my sister and 

I catered lunches around town. I would make them about as big around as 

somewhere between a baseball and softball.

Even when they're made what you might call, normal size, they have a really nice 

crust on the outside with a chewy center. Yes, indeedy!

Chocolate Chocolate Chunk Cookies

1 c. butter, softened

3/4 c. sugar

3/4 c. brown sugar

2 xl eggs

2 tsp vanilla

2 c. plus 2 tbsp flour

3/4 c. cocoa

1 tsp soda

1/2 tsp salt

1 pkg chocolate chunks

Preheat oven to 350*.

Cream butter and sugar. Beat in eggs 1 at a time. Stir in vanilla. Mix together dry ingredients (I like to use a whisk) and stir into butter mixture. Don't overmix. Fold in chocolate chunks.

Drop by rounded tablespoons onto a cookie sheet (a silpat works great) and bake for 9 to 12 minutes.

I like my cookies chewy so the middle is not completely set when I take them out to cool. I also give them a gentle press on them to flatten slightly before cooking.
