Easy Triple Chocolate Cookies
Description
This cookie recipe combines cocoa powder and two types of chocolate chips—semisweet and milk chocolate—to produce deep chocolate flavor throughout. The use of both butter and vegetable shortening helps achieve a soft, yet structured texture that holds shape during baking. Sugar and brown sugar provide sweetness and moisture.
The method involves creaming fats and sugars until fluffy, incorporating eggs and extracts, then folding in dry ingredients and chocolate chips. Cookies are portioned by tablespoon onto an ungreased sheet, baked at 350°F for 9 to 11 minutes, developing a chocolate aroma and chewy texture.
These cookies are suitable as a treat or dessert when chocolate flavor is desired. They bake up well for sharing or everyday enjoyment.
