I don't know the source of this recipe, other than my friend Carol. DH made them this weekend and they really are fabulous. The butterscotch morsels (optional) make them taste like coffee.

Chocogasm Cookies

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Cream together:

1 cup butter or margarine

1 cup white sugar

1 cup brown sugar



Add and beat well:

2 eggs

1+ tsp vanilla



Sift (optional) and add:

2 cups white whole wheat flour [because it's important to be healthy, you know!]

¼ cup dark baking cocoa

dash of cinnamon

1 tsp baking soda

½ tsp baking powder

1 tsp salt



Stir in:

2 cups rolled oats

2+ cups chocolate chips (or combination chocolate/butterscotch)

½ cup chopped, toasted pecans (optional)



Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto greased baking sheet. Bake 8-9 minutes. Don’t over bake. Remove from pan immediately. Store in a tightly sealed container when cooled. They won’t last more than a day anyway.
