Starting as any good thing does, these cookies begin with butter.

With an electric mixer, whip it into a creamy frenzy with your sugar. Beat in the eggs until you have a smooth, dreamy mixture then pop in vanilla extract for incredible aroma. Then, simply add your dry ingredients – flour, unsweetened cocoa powder (Valrhona brand is best!), baking soda, and salt, and mix it all gently together until a thick dough forms. Stir in your chocolate chips, and voila! A ridiculously tempting chocolate cookie batter that will make you want to grab the bowl, run to your room and not emerge until the following day. Chocolate stained, mysteriously.

But, don’t be bashful! As soon as you pull your perfect cookies out of the oven, you’ll be glad you didn’t down the dough in one sitting. You will be proud to show off these delicious treats. And whomever is lucky enough to enjoy them with you will really feel the love!
