I really liked these cookies. I wanted to make something different. These are still chocolatey, but with a warm aftertaste. I used dark cocoa. I cut the sugar to 1/2 cup, and the brown sugar to 1/4 cup. I also added 2 tsp. of decaf instant coffee granules. I did add the chocolate chips & 1 cup of chopped pecans. This thickened up the dough, so I just scooped 1 TBL. of dough with an ice cream scoop, and placed it on silpats. (no chilling) I did not roll in the sugar. I love to experiment. They worked out great. Thank you Greeny4444!

I am an active lady, and I am not the top chef in the world, but I can hold my own. I love making things that remind me of when I was little, I love trying out new recipes, and I love learning new things to cook. Most of the recipes I post are recipes I loved that I found online, but that I have tweaked just a bit. I do have some family recipes on here too. I love to bake, probably more than anything else in the kitchen. I love to bike ride. I like to read, travel, kayak (I've only been twice, but I loved it), hike, camp, basically any outdoorsy/active stuff.?
