Chocolate cookies with white chocolate chips

I don’t know about you, but one of my favorite things to do on a rainy day is bake a batch of homemade cookies. Since it appears that rain is in our forecast for a while, you’ll have plenty of time to try out some new recipes. These chocolate cookies are just the thing to make a rainy day better. Happy baking!

Ingredients:

1 cup unsalted butter

1 cup white sugar

3/4 cup brown sugar

2 eggs

1 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa

1 3/4 cup all purpose flour

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp baking powder

1 cup white chocolate chips

1 cup butterscotch chips

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 F and grease cookie sheets.

2. In a large bowl, cream the butter, brown sugar and white sugar. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well with each addition.

3. Sift together the cocoa, flour, baking soda and baking powder in a separate bowl. Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture.

4. Fold in the chocolate and butterscotch chips.

5. Drop by rounded spoonfuls on the prepared sheets.

6. Bake for eight to 10 minutes, until puffy but still soft. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for five minutes before transferring the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
