Chocolate Cookies are a rich chocolate cookie filled with chocolate chips. These Chocolate Cookies are thick, chewy, and soft. They almost taste like a brownie! Eat the cookies alone or top them with some ice cream, either way you’ve got the best chocolate cookie ever!

Double Chocolate Cookies are soft and chewy.

If I had a favorite cookie (ALL cookies are good) the Chocolate Cookie might just take the cake. Back when I worked at Subway, I’m pretty sure I could have eaten all of the chocolate and raspberry cheesecake cookies out of the case.

I am just a chocolate girl through and through. I can’t get enough of it. Yes, I am guilty of sneaking handfuls of chocolate chips when my kid’s aren’t in hearing rang.

Chocolate Cookies are not only full of chocolate, but they are so chewy and so soft. Honestly, I feel like I am eating a brownie but in cookie form.

For this recipe I used milk and semi sweet chocolate chips. These would be amazing with some white chocolate chips too.

Sometimes I even sandwich ice cream between two cookies. Yup, it’s basically heaven.

Chocolate Cookies are rich like a brownie cookie.

Tips for making the best Chocolate Cookie

  • The recipe calls for both butter and shortening. Yes, just using butter will work, but the shortening gives the outer edges a little crisp to them which is just plain tasty.
  • Cream the sugar with the butter/shortening for the full 3 minutes. Set a timer!
  • Don’t overmix the dry ingredients, that will create a cakey cookie. We want a chewy cookie. ?
  • Use a variety of chocolate chips! I like to use milk, semi sweet and then mini chocolate chips! The mini chocolate chips are a must in my book. It distributes the chocolate so well!
  • You’ll want to pull these out of the oven when they are a little under-baked! Leaving them on the hot pan to cool, they will continue to bake as they cool down.

Chocolate cookies are a good dessert for a crowd.
