Choc-Chip Chocolate Cookies

Choc-chip chocolate cookies. Try saying that 3 times fast! I have this weird thing where when I'm eating a white choc & macadamia cookie, I feel a tiny bit annoyed when I bite into a macadamia nut when I think it's white chocolate. I know, it's so weird, but it happens every time! Oh the deception!

So no mucking around with nuts here, I decided to make chocolate cookies with white choc-chips thrown in. White, because milk or dark simply wouldn't look as pretty in photographs! The texture was somewhere between a cookie and a brownie... if you're into that sort of thing!

CHOC-CHIP CHOCOLATE COOKIES
Melt together 150g butter, 3/4 cup caster sugar & 3/4 cup dark brown sugar over medium heat.
Set aside to cool for a minute then add 2 eggs.
While cooling your wet ingredients further, get your dry ingredients.
Combine just under 2 cups plain flour, 4 tbsp cocoa, 1/2 tsp baking soda & 1/2 tsp salt.
If the mixture is too runny, add a little more flour.
Combine the wet & dry ingredients, followed by 1 cup of chocolate chips.
I added the choc-chips after spooning the cookies onto the trays.
I personally like seeing the chips point upwards and hold their shape!
Bake at 160C (fan-forced) for 10 minutes or so then cool on a rack.
