Twin Chocolate Delights - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 cup butter (should be 1 cup, melted)
2 1/2 cups white sugar
1/2 cup cocoa (unsweetened, for baking)
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons vanilla
4 eggs (beaten, just whip them up with a fork)
3 cups flour (no need to sift)
1 cup nuts (chopped, this is optional and you can use your choice of nuts)
2 cups chocolate chips

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F., rack in the middle position.
Melt butter in a large microwave-safe bowl. Add the sugar and mix. Then add the cocoa, soda, salt, vanilla and stir until smooth. Add the beaten eggs and stir throughly. Mix in the flour, the chopped nuts (if you want to use them), and then the chocolate chips.
Place rounded teaspoons of dough on a greased cookie sheet, 12 to a standard sheet. (They'll flatten out as you bake them.).
Bake at 350 degrees F. for 10 minutes. Cool on the cookie sheet for 2 minutes, then remove them to a wire rack to complete cooling.
