¼cupregular cocoa
¼cupDutch-process cocoa
2eggs
1tsp.vanilla
½tsp.espresso powder

1tsp.baking soda

1cupchocolate chipsbittersweet is best
½cupchopped walnuts
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350.
In small bowl combine flour, salt and soda. In large mixing bowl combine sugar, oil, cocoas, eggs, vanilla and espresso powder.
Add flour mixture and combine halfway. Add chips and nuts and combine until no visible flour remains.
Use a disher to portion into 24 balls on silpat-lined cookie sheets.
Note: because this recipe uses oil rather than butter, the chips will get coated with oil and struggle to cling to the batter. All you need to do is press any wayward chips into each dough ball, and the cookies will bake up fine!
Bake 10-12 minutes, rotating sheets halfway thru, until cookies are set on the outside but still a bit moist inside.
Cool on baking sheets a few minutes before transferring the cookies to wire racks to finish cooling.
Notes
Variations: Love after dinner mints? Swap in ½ tsp. peppermint extract for the espresso powder, leave out the nuts and replace the chocolate chips with mint flavored chocolate chips or other mint baking chips.
