Mandy sent me this recipe a while ago and it called for margarine instead of butter, and regular chocolate chips instead of white. I like the recipe with these modifications because it reminds me of the cookies I loved from the deli I worked in growing up. Don't forget to grease the cookie sheet, it makes a big difference!
You'll Need:
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
2 T + 2 tsp unsweetened Hershey's cocoa powder
3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
3/4 cup white chocolate chips
To Make:
Preheat to 375F
Grease cookie sheets.
In mixing bowl or kitchen-aid mixer, cream together butter and sugars until smooth. Beat the egg in, then add vanilla. In separate bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, salt and cocoa powder. Add to the butter/sugar/egg/vanilla mixture and mix well. Stir in the chocolate and white chocolate chips slowly until just incorporated. Make tablespoonfuls of dough (about 1 1/2" diameter) and place on greased cookie sheet, and bake in oven for about 10 minutes. Allow to cool for a few minutes on the cookie sheet before removing to wire racks to cool.

Suggestion: bake what you need immediately (need, ha!). Fridge the rest of the dough balls on a separate cookie sheet until firm, then transfer to a ziplock bag and freeze until you are ready for more cookies. You can't beat fresh baked cookies!
