List of Ingredients




2 3/4 - cups all-purpose flour

1/3 – cup cocoa

1 – teaspoon baking soda

1/4 - teaspoon salt

1 – cup butter, softened

3/4 - cup sugar

3/4 - cup light brown sugar, packed

1 – teaspoon pure vanilla extract

2 – eggs

12 ounces - semi-sweet chocolate

1 – cup slivered almonds


Recipe



I preheat my oven to 375° F.

In a large mixing bowl, I sift my flour, coca, baking soda and salt.

In a mixer at medium speed, I beat in the butter, sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla until mixture become creamy.

Next, I add the eggs and continue to beat until well.

Then I gradually add in the flour mixture and continue to beat until well.

Next step is to add in the chocolate. I just mix until mixed through the batter.

Then I mix in the almonds and mix until mixed through the batter.

Using a teaspoon, I make a round spoonful of dough and drop onto ungreased cookie sheets. I want the dough around 2 inches apart.

I pop the cookie sheets into the oven and bake for 8 minutes or until set. I allow them to cool about a minute before removing from cookie sheet.

Finally, I remove from cookie sheets and allow them to cool on a wired rack.

Makes about 5 dozen.
