Double Chocolate Chips Cookies

Chocolate Therapy Cookies

My three girls absolutely love chocolate chips cookies but double the chocolate and they will have sugar rush for sure.  Well if you are craving for chocolate, this double chocolate chip cookie recipe will definitely satisfy that craving. 
You can make some changes in the recipe depending on your preference. Use brown sugar if you want to have a more soft and moist cookies. To preventing the dough from spreading to the baking sheet cornstarch may be added. But since I wanted my cookies to spread thinly and will have round shape, I did not add cornstarch to it. But if you want you may add a few teaspoon of cornstarch to this recipe. If I will be making this cookies for my kids, I will use the semi-sweet type of chocolate bar. And if I want to make it all for myself, since I love dark chocolates, I will use dark chocolates bars and chips for this recipe. But if you want this recipe to be more interesting, add different chocolate flavors. Use more than one type of chocolate. 

I drink hot tea without sugar when I eat these. Hoping to get at least a little of that calories from those tempting cookies. My husband and two daughters want it with milk. But guess what my youngest daughter wants to pair her cookies with, she would say in her cute voice. " Mommy, I want hot chocho (choco) please." it would be a triple chocolate treat for her then. but be sure to drink  a lot of water after eating these.
