Triple Chocolate Cookies

These Triple Chocolate Cookies are perfect in every way!

Three triple chocolate cookies, stacked



I had a dream last night that I was back in high school.

With permy hair and Guess jeans.

In my dream I went to the early 90’s version of William McKinley High School.

So among the denim jackets and Polo Shirts there was singing and choreography.

Performances of songs made famous by Ace of Base and Sammy Hagar Van Halen were received by the graduating class of 1993 with standing ovations and high fives.

It was kinda awesome…until…

[Enter the villian]

There she was in her red track suit.

No, it wasn’t Sue Sylvester.

It was a hard core mean girl from middle school.  She obviously still haunts me to this day.

She used to tease me in my 7th grade “Theater Arts” class…calling me “Shelly Belly” which, in retrospect, is quite frankly the lamest insult ever.

But I was not a “stand up against the bully” kinda girl.  I was a “please don’t notice me and call me Shelly Belly or draw any attention to my home permed hair and crooked pre-braces teeth” kind of girl.

SO, into the auditorium she walked.  She looked like her 7th grade self,  french braid and all…because from what I understand evil doesn’t age.

But instead of being scared of her making fun of my choreographed routine or throwing a Slushee in my face I promptly Body Slammed her into submission and put her in the Sleeper Hold until she apologized for years of torment.

It was the sweetest moment of redemption.

I woke up with I Saw the Sign in my head and a new found gumption…like I could WWE the heck out of anyone who dares call me Shelly Belly again.

I took my power back.

Anyway, so that was my dream last night.

Now here are some cookies that will put the belly back in your Shelly.

They are cozy. Feel free to drown your teenage scars in them.  They are understanding.

Start with 3 kinds of chocolate.

First you must chop chocolate.  Take the extra time.  It feels good.

This might be hard, but after you mix up your dough let it be.

Cover it with a nice blanket of cling wrap and give it a rest.

Think about all it’s just been through.

It was chopped, creamed, cracked and beaten.  Those ingredients need a little bit of time.

Because in a few hours they have some important work to do.

You wouldn’t go into the your life’s purpose after just being put through a stand mixer.

It needs a nap, an overnight is good too.

After nap time you bake.

And then you eat.

I am a firm believer that a good chocolate chip cookie will solve a world of problems.

  1. How awesome to take down the bully…even if it is just in your dreams so many years later. I think it would be fun to go to a high school where people burst into songs, but nobody ever did that at my school.

    I am guessing that if you made these cookies in high school, but didn’t share with the mean girl, that she would have become your friend to get these cookies!

    I so want to try them. Wondering how they would be if we added a 4th chocolate…dark to the party.
