TOTALLY CHOCOLATE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325. Melt the 4 oz of chocolate.
• Measure the flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt into a bowl.
• Cream the butter and two sugars in another bowl.
• I use my freestanding mixer, itself a source of comfort for me.
• Add the melted chocolate and mix together.
• Beat in the vanilla extract and cold egg, and then mix in the dry ingredients.
• Finally stir in the chocolate chips.
• Scoop out 1/4 cup sized mounds--an ice cream scoop and a palette knife are the best tools for the job--and place on a lined baking sheet about 2 1/2 inches apart.
• Do not flatten them.
• Bake for 18 minutes, testing with a cake tester to make sure they come out semi-clean and not wet with cake batter.
• If you pierce a chocolate chip, try again.
• Leave to cool on the baking sheet for 4 to 5 minutes, then transfer them to a cooling rack to harden as they cool.
