I've tried this recipe twice and with some changes it's great. BOTH times I HALVED the recipe b/c I didn't want to make a lot. 1st try: I used 1/2t each of baking powder and baking soda (as another rater suggested) - the cookies came out puffy (not flat) but they were still hard. I like chewy cookies so I looked at a soft cookie recipe to copy it. The following changes make a great soft cookie: (using a halved recipe) use 1/2t baking soda, reduce 1/2c white sugar to 1/4c plus 2T, reduce 1/2c + 2T cocoa to only 1/2c, and reduce 3/4c + 2T flour to 3/4c. Use the suggested amounts of the other ingredients, and the cookies will come out chocolatey and delicious! (P.S. these cookies are even good without the white chocolate chips)
