Guy’s, I’m extremely proud of this cookie! I have been making chewy chocolate cookies since I was about 5 years old. I even won a first-place medal for this cookie at my County Fair as a little girl the one and only year I entered them! This is, hand down, my favorite cookie recipe. Possibly even favorite all-time in the dessert category. If you’re not a chocolate lover…do your chocolate lover friends a favor and share this one with them!

If you’ve been following me along my blogging journey so far, you know this is not a dedicated food blog. I don’t claim to be a great/creative chef or baker. But I have always had a love for baking- and I want to share with everyone my favorite recipes.

So, I want to share with all the chocoholics out there my recipe for Chewy Chocolate Cookies. Trust me…you have to try this one.

Introducing my Mini-Chef 👩🏻‍🍳

Chewy Chocolate Cookies

1 1/4 cups soft margarine

2 cups sugar

2 eggs

2 teaspoons vanilla

2 cups flour

3/4 cup Cocoa

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 1/2 cups chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream the margarine and sugar until very creamy. Add the eggs and vanilla, blend well. Combine all dry ingredients in a separate bowl. Slowly blend dry ingredients in. Mix in chocolate chips. Bake 8-9 minutes. DO NOT OVERCOOK-they will be very soft when they come out, let cool 1 minute on the baking sheet before removing.

I stack mine up rather than forming balls..I think they cook better this way

Finger lickin’ good 😋

If either of my girls are going to follow in my footsteps of baking, I have a feeling it will be Marnie. She literally stood on her stool and helped me through the entire baking process. I’m lucky if Hadley stands there for 5 seconds before running off to play something.

This was the first time I have made these cookies in years! Safe to say it was a big hit- the girls are chocoholics like their Mama!
