Double Chocolate Chip Cookies

February 21, 2014

YIELD: 18 cookies

INGREDIENTS:

1/2 cup oil
3/4 cup white sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour or for Gluten Free: 1/2 cup rice flour, 4 tablespoons corn starch, 1/2 teaspoon xantham gum 

1/3 cup cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 cup Enjoy Life Chocolate Chunks

DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat oven to 350°F.

2. In large bowl, beat oil, sugar, eggs, and vanilla until light and fluffy. Combine the flour mixture, cocoa, baking soda, and salt; stir into the oil mixture until well blended. Mix in the chocolate chips. Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto greased cookie sheets.

3. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or just until set. Cool slightly on the cookie sheets before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.

NOTES:

- I measured these using my 1 tablespoon cookie scoop, rolled them into balls and slightly flattened them with my palm. Once they came out of the oven, I added a few extra chips to the tops of each cookie.
