The cocoa you use will make the difference in this cookie. You can through in espresso powder and or chips.

2 c. AP flour
1/2 c. cocoa powder
1 teas. baking powder
1 teas. salt
8 oz. unsalted butter, cut into 1 ounce pieces
1 c. sugar
3 lg. eggs
1 tbls. vanilla extract
2 c. chocolate chips
(I added 1 tbls. espresso powder)

Preheat oven to 350. Combine dry ingredients, sift onto a piece of wax paper. Set aside.

Beat butter and sugar in mixer fitted with a paddle. Beat 3 minutes on medium speed. Scrape bowl with rubber spatula, then add eggs and vanilla, beat for 2 minutes or smooth. Scrape down again.

Beat again for 3 minutes. Scrape down bowl again. On low speed add the dry ingredients until combined, about 30 seconds. Add chocolate chips and stir in.

Place on cookie sheets by tbls. and bake 10-12 minutes.

Now when I make cookies I try this, I saw it on somewhere, I take the cookie scoop and then take the ball of dough, I break it in half. You turn the broken side up and push the two pieces together with broken side up. It works for some cookies, it gives it a textured top.
