**********************************
Hello I am Ceecee from over at Within the Kitchen and I would like to share a wonderful recipe with you.  But first a little back story.  It's a Wednesday night and I suddenly have a craving for chocolate chip cookies. Just thinking about the aroma of fresh baked cookies sends a shiver down my spine and puts a smile on my face. But I've had dinner, am comfortably sitting on the couch and waiting for something to come on the TV. And besides, how do I justify to myself eating cookies on a Wednesday night? Perhaps a bowl of strawberries will suffice??? Who am I kidding, it won't. In my head, I go over the ingredient list of one my fave recipes...I think I have everything so I thought; let's do it!
Well.....apparently I used all of the regular flour when I made chocolate turnovers. And I used all of the white sugar when I made a cake for a friend, and I didn't have any room temperature butter. Was my craving to go unfullfilled? No way,  I decided to improvise. I used cake flour, cocoa (cause by now my chocolate craving was out of control) and melted butter. And by adding 2 more types of chips, my craving monster was finally satified! These cookies are cakier than my other chocoalte chip cookie recipes, soft and dense...and the aroma....oh man, I'm craving them again!!!
