Chocolate Cookies

These cookies are soft and delicious.  My mom cut this recipe out of a newspaper years ago and it is still one of my favorites.  

Cream together:

1 1/4 c. butter

2 c. sugar

Add to creamed mixture:

2 eggs

2 tsp. vanilla

Combine in separate bowl and then add to creamed mixture:

2 c. flour

3/4 c. cocoa powder

1 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

Add:

12 oz chips of choice

I especially like white chocolate or peppermint chips, but peanut butter and normal chocolate are nice too :)

Drop by teaspoons on ungreased cookie sheet.  Bake at 350 degrees for 8-9 minutes.  Makes about 4 dozen.
