Ingredients




1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup softened butter (I used margarine)
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 egg
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1/4 cup semi-sweet mini chocolate chips
Frosting
1/2 cup sweet and condensed milk
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Preparation

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.  I actually set mine to 325 degrees because I think it tends to run a bit warmer than it should.  2 In a mixing bowl, mix butter eggs, sugar.   3 Add baking soda, powder and salt and vanilla.   4 Add cocoa, and then add flour.  Mix well, and fold in mini chocolate chips.   5 Drop onto slightly greased cookie sheets and bake for 10 minutes.  Be careful not to over bake.  The edges should be firm, but not dark 6 Cool on the cookie sheet for 1 minute and remove onto baking rack. 7 For the fudgy frosting add 1/2 c. of sweetened condensed milk and 1 cup of semi sweet chocolate chips into saucepan.  Heat until chips are melted and remove from heat.   8 Frost immediately.

About


Adapted from Better Homes & Gardens All Times Favorite Cookbook (Vol. 2)  The original recipe (Chocolate-Cherry Cookies) calls for maraschino cherries.  I opted the cherries out of this recipe, and added chocolate chips to the batter. 
To keep fresh store in air tight container. Best if eaten while fresh.
