Double Chocolate Cookies From Heaven

Just found the most fudgey, moist, chocolatey delicious cookie I've ever tasted. It's almost like a gooey brownie and a chocolate chip cookie gave birth to the most perfect child since Harper Beckham. (Those pictures from Fashion Week? Could she be any cuter?) One of these bad boys will satisfy even the most aggressive of chocolate cravings and since they're so moist, they don't go stale quickly. I was hesitant to make them considering I already have what I thought was a great double chocolate cookie recipe, thank goodness I reconsidered. This is the only double chocolate cookie recipe I will be using for the forseeable future! 


Shall I just go ahead and call these Harper Beckham Double Chocolate Cookies?

1c. Semi-sweet chocolate chips
2tbsp unsalted butter or margarine
1c and 3tbsp all purpose flour
3tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
1tsp baking powder
1/2tsp salt
1/2c sugar
1/4c and 2tbsp packed brown sugar
2 eggs (at room temp)
2tbsp milk
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
1c milk chocolate chips

-Preheat oven to 300F (150C). Line two baking trays with parchment paper and lightly grease.
-Over low heat, gently melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips and butter until smooth. 
-In a medium sized bowl combine flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
-In a separate bowl beat the eggs and mix in both the sugars, the milk and vanilla, 
-Add the wet ingredients to the dry (or vice versa) and stir just until combined. Fold in the chocolate/butter and then the milk chocolate chips stirring until the mixture is just blended.
-Scoop in generous tablespoons of batter onto your prepared baking trays and bake for 18-20 minutes until firm but soft. Let sit on baking tray for five minutes to set before transfering to a cooling rack. Eat warm, cold, lukewarm and often!

This is the first cookie I've ever been able to eat half and feel satisfied enough to walk away, they're that indulgent. Or maybe I'm just growing up. More likely they're just a really, really good cookie.
