Double chocolate deliciousness

Pickle loves to bake with me and JJ loves to snitch, so we make a lot of baked goods. We have an unwritten rule in our house that we don't buy baked goods or box mixes, if you want something, you make it by scratch! Donuts are the exception! I'm not using a deep fryer! This "rule" saves us money and inches off our waistline.  

Yesterday after school, Pickle said he was hungry for double chocolate chip cookies! Can't argue with that, lil man! I was looking for an excuse to use my new Penzies Cocoa Farmer J got for me for Christmas anyway!


I found this recipe on Pinterest...


The only change I made was using 1/2 the amount of cocoa and less chocolate chips...and it was still plenty Choco-licious! 

This recipe is great for the winter because it only calls for one egg- with winter eggs a scarcity- this recipe gets two thumbs up from me! 

Next time, I would double the batch though, as these cookies won't lass more than 24 hours in our house!



 Next time, I'll make the balls a little smaller, so they don't melt into each other and flatten out so much!


Homemade double chocolate chip cookies in the cookie jar, made with love and with the help of little hands, is always a good thing in the middle of winter!
