Mother's Day Baking Madness

On Mother's Day, Colin and I went up to visit my mom and I started baking like crazy!
I went back to the basics and made her favorite 'Chocolate Chocolate Chip" Betty Crocker cake (Yes, the cake mix in a box =p) and it was so moist and delicious!

After, I started on a new recipe I found for Chewy Chocolate White Chocolate Chip cookies. I had a craving for these and was reminded of the gooey cookies we had at our high school cafeteria.
Making the cookies was quite a feat due to the lack of equipment available to me! I ended up breaking one of our many wooden spoons in half when I was mixing the dry ingredients in with the wet ones...oops! But with help from the rubber spatula, I got the batter mixed!!!
So here is the recipe:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Grease baking sheet or line with parchment paper

Whisk together:
1 3/4 cup Flour
1 1/4 cup Cocoa Powder
2 tsps Baking Soda

Cream together until light and fluffy:
1 cup Butter
1 cup White Sugar
3/4 cup Brown Sugar

-2 Eggs (add in one at a time)
Add:
1/4 tsp Salt
1tsp Vanilla

Add the dry ingredients to the wet a little at a time
fold in white chocolate chips
Bake 8-10 mins
let cool on baking sheet for 5 mins, then move to wire rack to cool completely
