CHOCOLATE CHOCOLATE CHOCOLATE CASHEW COOKIES (WITH RAISINS)
I was having a massive chocolate attack last weekend, so I came up with this. I am normally not crazy about raisins in my cookies but I like them when paired with nuts and chocolate. This started as your standard basic chocolate chip cookie recipe, but you wouldn't know it by the end result.

Steps:
- Take a stick of butter out of the refrigerator, open the wrapping and leave the butter on the kitchen counter until it gets pretty soft - allow at least 30 minutes.
- When the butter is soft, wash your hands and put on an apron.
- Put the butter in the bowl, and beat it with the wooden spoon until it gets creamy. Beat in the sugar until it is thoroughly mixed.
- Crack open both eggs, and put them into the bowl that has the butter and sugar in it. Be careful not to get any bits of eggshell in the bowl. Beat the eggs with the butter and sugar until they are all mixed in.
- Take the sifter, and put these ingredients into it: the flour, the cocoa, the baking powder and the salt.
- Sift them into the bowl with the butter, sugar and eggs. Slowly mix everything together with the wooden spoon until it becomes brown and gooey. Then mix in the raisins.
- Have an adult turn on the oven for you and set it to 350 degrees.
- Wrap your cookie sheet with a piece of aluminum foil, keeping it nice and smooth. Smear the remaining 1 or 2 teaspoons butter all over the foil. Scoop up a teaspoon of the batter. Now, take the second teaspoon and use it to push the batter off onto the cookie sheet. Keep doing this until you have formed about 18 cookies, leaving about 2 inches of space space between the cookies. Don't worry that you have batter left over. You can make another batch of cookies.
- Have an adult help you put the cookie sheet into the oven. Let the cookies bake for 15 minutes - the tops will no longer look shiny. Have an adult take the cookies out of the oven and help you slide them off the cookie sheet with the spatula and put them on the wire rack. Let them cool while you make another batch of the cookies with the rest of the batter.

CHOCOLATE COOKIES WITH CHOCOLATE COVERED RAISINS
We bought a bunch of dark chocolate covered raisins from the candy bins where you scoop out what you want. So my DH scooped up a lot! I hid half of it till I tossed this recipe together. The outside is crunchy, but the center will be moist and chewy. This recipe has two methods of directions so it's not a hard recipe to put together. Your choice.

Tips:
- Use good quality chocolate: The chocolate is the star of these cookies, so it's important to use a good quality chocolate that you enjoy the taste of. A dark chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70% is a good choice.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help the cookies to hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set: The cookies should be slightly soft in the center when you take them out of the oven. They will continue to firm up as they cool.
- Let the cookies cool completely before storing them: The cookies will be easier to handle and store once they have cooled completely.
