Modified version of a recipe found on the web. I was trying to recreate a cookie from a local chain called George's. I think I got it pretty close, these are yummy!
Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup shortening
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 cups flour
2/3 cup cocoa powder
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups chocolate chips
3/4 cup coarsely chopped almonds
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. In large bowl, beat butter, shortening, sugar, eggs, and vanilla until light and fluffy.
3. Combine the flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt; stir into the butter mixture until well blended.
4. Stir in the chocolate chips and almonds.
5. Drop by level 1/4-cup-measures onto parchment-lined cookie sheets.
6. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or just until set.
7. Cool slightly on the cookie sheets before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
