Ingredients
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Set aside 1/2 cup of the raspberry chips for the drizzle. Put the remaining chips in a small microwave-safe bowl and microwave on HIGH for 1 minute, or until melted when stirred.
- In a large bowl, beat the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until blended. Add the melted raspberry chips and beat until blended. Beat in the eggs and vanilla.
- In a separate bowl, stir together the flour, cocoa, baking powder, and baking soda. Gradually beat the dry mixture into the chocolate mixture. Drop rounded teaspoonfuls onto an ungreased cookie sheet.
- For chewy cookies, bake 8 to 9 minutes; for crisp cookies, bake 10 to 11 minutes. Cool slightly, transfer to wire racks, and cool completely.
- Put the reserved raspberry chips and shortening in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on HIGH for about 30 seconds, or until the chips are melted when stirred. Drizzle over the cooled cookies.
