Today morning when R woke up she asked me what i was making special today. As kids grow up almost everyday is going to be special and everyday they demand something special or some kind of goodies!

Here you go sweeties.. Double chocolate chip cookies for my dear daughter who loves any form of chocolate and blueberry muffins for my dear son who think boys should eat everything ‘blue’. I wonder from where he got the idea! LOL! And what all things he will learn like this when he goes to school next year!

Double Chocolate Chip Cookies

This cookie recipe was given to me by my friend Jen. But as R wanted double chocolate i added cocoa powder to it. Still it came out so soft and moist!

1 cup all purpose flour

1 1/2 tbsp cocoa powder

1/2 tsp baking soda

1/4 tsp salt

1/4 cup plus 1 tbsp melted butter

1/2 cup white sugar

1 tsp vanilla

1 egg

1 egg yolk

1 cup semi-sweet chips

Preheat oven to 325.

Combine flour, baking soda and salt.  Set aside.

Cream butter & sugars.  Beat in vanilla, egg & yolk until light and creamy.  Gradually mix in dry ingredients.  Stir in chocolate chips.

Drop dough onto greased cookie sheets. (Mine was around a tbsp) Bake for about 10-15 minutes.  Cool for a few minutes on the sheets, then finish cooling on wire rack.
