Cookies - Kathy's Chocolate Drop I remember my mom and our family friend making these cookies. She measured the cocoa with a coffee mug, and I've never been able to duplicate her cookies until now! Scoop with small scoop onto ungreased cookie sheet, 15 per sheet and bake 350* (not convection, like a cake) for 10 minutes. Leave on cookie sheet just a minute until set then remove to wire racks to cool.
These would be very good frosted, but I probably will never take the time to frost them! Kathy never did. In mixer bowl with cookie paddles, beat:
3 c brown sugar 1 lb soft unsalted butter until fluffy. Beat in: 4 eggs Stir together: 3 c baking cocoa 3 c whole wheat flour ( If you're not feeling like healthy cookies, use all white flour! ) 3 c white flour 2 t baking soda 2 t salt Add to butter mixture along with: 2 c milk 4 t vanilla 2 c walnuts, not chopped at all! Mix all together just until well mixed, but not overmixed, like a cake. Scrape sides and mix just a few seconds more to bring it together and develop the structure.
