Instructies
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Set the mixture aside.
- In a separate bowl, cream the margarine with a wooden spoon.
- Gradually beat in the granulated and brown sugars, creaming until well blended.
- If making the peanut butter variation, cream 1 cup of peanut butter with the margarine before adding the sugars.
- Beat in the eggs, one at a time, and the vanilla.
- Stir in the dry ingredients, combining them well with your hands to avoid overmixing.
- Add the chocolate chips.
- For the peanut butter variation, add the peanut butter and blend well into the dough.
- Drop heaping tablespoonfuls of dough onto parchment-lined cookie sheets.
- Bake for about 8 minutes.
- Be cautious not to overcook.
- Place the baking sheet on a rack to allow air circulation under the cookies as they cool, or slide parchment paper, with the cookies still in place, onto racks to cool.
- Once completely cool, store the cookies tightly covered.
