Double chocolate cookies

Recipe from Georgene Trewatha of Campbell, Mo.

Prep time: 15 minutes
Cook time: 11 minutes per sheet

1 1/4 cups sugar
1 cup butter softened (2 sticks)
1 med. to large egg
1 tsp vanilla
2 cups all purpose flour (unsifted and leveled off)
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 ( 12 oz) bag milk chocolate chips
1/2 cup or more pecans (if nuts are desired)

1. Notice no salt is needed. Cream sugar and butter until fluffy; Beat in egg and vanilla. Beat in flour, cocoa and baking soda on low speed, stir in chocolate chips. If too stiff add 1 tbsp water.

2. Drop dough by rounded tablespoons 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet (small scoops work great).

3. Bake at 375 degrees 8 to 11 minutes, not too long to dry them out, 11 mins worked fine in my oven but ovens do vary. They should still be soft when removed from oven.

4. Let sit 1 minute then remove to cooling rack.

Servings: about 30 to 36 cookies
Comments: They are just plain good.

    In Italian, the word "gelato" means "frozen" more than it means "ice cream." So, for as much as we have heard that gelato is the Italian equivalent of ice cream, this "gelato" is really a frozen mousse
    In Italian, the word "gelato" means "frozen" more than it means "ice cream." So, for as much as we have heard that gelato is the Italian equivalent of ice cream, this "gelato" is really a frozen mousse of a dessert. Quick and easy, with no ice cream maker needed, this dessert may be served as a chilled mousse or frozen completely as a "gelato."

    Celebrate warm weather with nature's sweet berries. Simply served with a light dusting of powdered sugar, this dessert is not a sugar overload, because it relies on the natural sweetness of in-season berries.
