By carvalhohm

Ingredients

• 1 c. butter, softened
• 1 c. brown sugar, packed
• 1 c. sugar
• 2 t. vanilla extract
• 2 eggs
• 2/3 c. baking cocoa
• 2 c. all-purpose flour
• 1 t. baking soda
• 1 t. salt
• 1-1/2 lbs. white melting chocolate, coarsely chopped

Preparation

Step 1

In a bowl, beat butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Mix in vanilla and eggs, one at a time; stir in cocoa.

In a separate bowl, combine remaining ingredients except chocolate; stir into butter mixture until just combined. Stir in chocolate.

Drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls onto a greased or parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Dampen your hand and slightly flatten dough. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes (cookies will appear underbaked). Let cool one minute on baking sheet; remove to wire rack to cool completely.

Makes about 4 dozen.
