I think we're gonna need a bigger bowl

Dark Chocolate Raspberry Cookies

Chocolate covered berries are one of those things that just feel fancy, right? Who doesn’t love biting into the crunchy chocolate shell then getting that burst of juicy fruit? WELL- we’re not dipping berries, but his recipe brings one of the best decadent treats to cookie form!

Ingredients:
2 cups flour
1/2 cup Hershey’s cocoa (I prefer special dark)
1 tsp baking soda
1 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 eggs
1 package of Hershey’s special dark chips
2.5 oz freeze dried raspberries (can be substituted for strawberries if you prefer)

In a small bowl, mix together flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt.

In a larger mixing bowl or a stand mixer, beat the butter, sugar, and vanilla until creamy. Add the eggs and beat until well combined.

Slowly add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients.

Add in the raspberries and chocolate chips. Please learn from my struggle and do not add them all at once. It makes it super hard to mix it into the dough. I’d suggest doing the chocolate chips first and then the raspberries. You could even split the raspberries in half if you wanted.

Drop by rounded tablespoons onto a parchment lined cookie sheet. Bake at 375 F for 8-10 minutes or until set.

Let cool for a few minutes then transfer to a wire cooling rack. Enjoy!
