chocolate cookies

probably my favorite cookies when they have the cranberries in them.

2 C flour
1/2 C cocoa
3/4 C packed brown sugar
3/4 C white sugar
1 C butter softened
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder

optional:
white chocolate chips
dried cranberries

mix together dry ingredients (although i skip this- we don't have a dishwasher and i don't want to wash another bowl)

you know the cookie drill:
preheat oven to 350
blend sugars and butter, add eggs and vanilla, beat well.
add dry ingredients.
mix in whatever you want to add whatever you want- i have not tired nuts but that might be good too.

bake for 8-10 minutes- don't over bake, they will not be chewy or soft, and when you take them out of the oven let them cook for 5 minutes on the cookie sheet then place on cookie rack thing to cool the rest of the way.
enjoy.
