Death By Chocolate Cookies

If you are a chocolate lover this cookie is for you.  It's a soft chocolate cookie with chocolate chips inside and a white chocolate chip drizzle on the outside.  I've also made this cookie with the white chocolate chips on the inside as well as nuts.  There are many options to this basic chocolate cookie recipe.  You can also use a smaller scoop size and make a chocolate crinkle cookie.  They are the ones that are rolled in powdered sugar before you bake them and then they crack on the top when baked.  It's a great cookie for any time of the year.
