- 1 cup soft margarine (2 sticks)
- 2 cups sugar
- 2 medium eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
- 2 cups flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons water, if necessary
Get down your best big mixing bowl. In it
combine the margarine and sugar. Mix until
the mixture is creamy. Add the eggs and
vanilla. Blend again, until the batter is
fluffy and soft. Add the cocoa, flour,
baking soda and salt. Stir the dough until
it is thick and well formed. If the dough is
too thick, you may add a spoonful or two of
water to soak up the flour. Blend very well
after adding the water. Drop the dough by
spoonfuls onto a well oiled cookie sheet.
Bake at 350° for about 10 minutes. Makes
about 3 dozen.
These are very rich and chocolately. If you
liked you could add a cup of walnuts, or a
cup of white chocolate chips, or both.
Chocolate chips can also be added for Double
Chocolate Cookies, and 1/2-cup of coconut is
good by itself, or in combination with any
of the other additions. Scrumptious. Double
Scrumptious actually.
