I am a self-admitted chocoholic (*yep, chocoholic is a real word! Who knew?!?). I love dark chocolate desserts (see here and here) and honestly, the more chocolate the better! Recently I developed a new cookie recipe, that might be my favorite cookie recipe to date. Why? It's easy to make, requires very few ingredients, can potentially be made to be Gluten Free and definitely hits the spot when I am having a serious chocolate craving. This recipe can best be described as "cookie meets brownie." Served with a scoop of ice cream, these cookies will be the perfect dessert to serve at my next dinner party.

- 1 cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
- 3 1/2 cups Powdered Sugar
