Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2

Sift flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl.

Step 3

Beat sugar and shortening together using an electric mixer in a mixing bowl. Add eggs 1 at a time while continuing to beat until combined. Beat in vanilla extract followed by cocoa; beat in chocolate chips. Beat in flour mixture and milk, alternating, until combined. Chill dough in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours.
