Double Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies (aka Mama Hookies Cookies)

By Hklbrries

Easy to make, the cookies get a double dose of chocolate with cocoa powder and chocolate chips.

This recipe was given to me 20 years ago by my son’s daycare provider. Since then, I have shared it countless times. They are so good and easy to make. My family and friends simply call them “Mama Hookies Cookies.”

Sift together flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt. Stir into creamed mixture. Add oats and chocolate chips. Dough will be very stiff. Add up to 1/4 cup water if needed. Form tablespoon-size balls and place on prepared cookie sheet. Flatten slightly. Bake 10 to 12 minutes.
