Double Chocolate Chip Cookies

This recipe came from a friend of Emily Asay's. I tried it today and it was as good as she described!

Double Chocolate Chip Cookies

6 tbsp butter

1 cup sugar

1 tsp vanilla

2 eggs

1 1/2 cups flour

1 1/2 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp salt

2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

___________________________

Whip butter and sugar together. Melt 1 cup chocolate chips in a sauce pan over the stove. Combine with butter and sugar mixture. Add vanilla and eggs. Mix well.

Combine flour, baking powder, and salt. Add to wet ingredients. Mix well. Stir in remaining 1 cup chocolate chips. Refrigerate for 20 minutes (*important, otherwise they will not turn out fudgy!). Bake at 350 for 12-15 minutes.
