#15 Karen’s Chocolate -Chocolate Chip Cookies

This is a friends recipe, she asked me to make them for her.... I am back...

4 ½ cups flour
½ cup cocoa
2 tsp baking soda
2 tsp salt
2 cups butter
1 ½ cups white sugar
1 ½ cups brown sugar
2 tsp Almond Extract
4 large eggs
1 12oz pkg chocolate chips
*optional 1 cup raisins

Combine baking powder, flour, cocoa & salt in large bowl, beat together butter, sugar’s and almond extract. Beat in eggs. Add flour, a little at a time. Stir in chips and raisins.

Preheat oven to 375. Place in rounded teaspoonfuls on cookie sheet and bake for 8-10 min. Cool on wire rack.

This recipe was created out of need. I had run out of flour so I added the rest in cocoa . Also, I had run out of vanilla so I used Almond flavoring. The end result was amazing!!!!!
