For the first time in many weeks (maybe 20), there is no football! But I still,felt the need to bring something to work on a Monday (ahead of this nor’easter), so I decidedto go with dark chocolate cookies. I picked up a monster size bag of dark chocolate chips from bjs, along with a large bag of semisweet chips! One can never have too many bags of chocolate chips!

• Ingredients
• 3 tbs butter
• 2 1/4 cups dark chocolate chips
• 3 eggs
• 3/4 cup sugar
• 1 tbs vanilla
• 1/4 cup plus 2 tbs flour
• 1/4 tsp plus 1/8 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/3 cup milk chocolate chips
• 1/3 cup,semisweet chocolate chips
• 1/3 cup dark chocolate chips

Directions – Melt butter and 2 1/4 cups dark chocolate chips in 30 second increments until you can stir smooth. Add eggs and vanilla. Plenty in dry ingredients. Fold in chips. Mixture will be quite soft. Scoop out 1/4 cups of dough, place on a flat surface and chill a few hours or overnight. Preheat oven to 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Line a sheet with nonstick baking liners. You likely will have to use a spatula to scrape dough from your flat surface to your baking sheets. Bake 10 to 12 minutes. They will be slightly gooey in center. They will continue to bake on cookie sheet once removed from oven. Sprinkle warm cookies with powdered sugar. Store in covered container.
