Triple Chocolate Chip Chocolate Cookies

While I asked for help deciding what to take to the Christmas party/concert tonight.  Despite listing six options for people to choose from, I went with my wife's Christmas baking recipe for this year...triple chocolate chip chocolate cookies.  So I thought it would only be fair to post the recipe (actually my wife asked me to post it so she doesn't loose it).

Ingredients:

• 2 eggs
• 1 tsp. baking powder
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1 cup white sugar
• 3/4 tsp. salt
• 1 cup shortening (or butter)
• 2 cups flour
• 1/2 cup cocoa powder
• 1 cup white chocolate chips
• 1 cup milk chocolate chips
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Mix the sugar and shortening until smooth and creamy.
• Add eggs and vanilla, mix well.
• Add chocolate chips, mix well.
• Add remaining dry ingredients, mix well
• portion out cookies (1 tbsp./cookie) onto non-stick cookie sheet.
