Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
1 cup slightly softened unsalted butter (not quite room temp)
¼ cup vegetable shortening
1½ cups granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp salt
¾ tsp baking powder
⅔ cup unsweetened cocoa powder (Dutch processed is great)
3 or 3½ cups flour
Directions:
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375º. Line baking sheets with silicone baking sheets or
parchment paper.
2. Cream butter, shortening and sugar together.
3. Add eggs, vanilla, baking powder and salt and mix well.
4. Stir in the cocoa until well blended.
5. Add flour and mix until the flour is completely incorporated and the dough holds
together in a ball. IF YOU ARE GOING TO MAKE COOKIES RIGHT AWAY, add
3½ cups flour. If you are going to "chill" the dough overnight, or just wait for
another day to make your cookies, STOP AT 3 cups. It will be totally soft and look
all wrong, and you will want to ignore me completely and add more flour, but Don't
do it!
6. Roll out on a lightly floured surface. Bake at 375º for 7-10 minutes.
