**Giveaway has ended**

There are many perks to being a food blogger and one of them is getting to try wonderful products and cookbooks. I was recently contacted by Tate’s Bake Shop to host a giveaway on my site. I received some wonderful cookies that were buttery, crisp, and so delicious as well as a great cookbook filled with bread, muffin, cookie, and cake recipes. We all enjoyed the cookies and I really enjoyed the beautiful cookbook. It’s filled with excellent recipes that I am so excited to try. The first recipe to catch my eye was this cookie recipe. They were a HUGE hit with my husband and children. They are extremely rich and decadent – perfect for my chocolate-loving family.

How to Make Double Chocolate Almond Cookies

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with a silpat mat.

Combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt together in a small bowl.

In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugars together with an electric mixer until creamy. Add the egg and vanilla then mix well. Add the flour mixture and mix until it’s just combined. Add the chocolate chips and almonds. Mix them until they are combined.

Spoon cookie dough onto the baking sheets 2 inches apart. Bake them for 15 minutes then remove them from the oven and let cool for a few minutes to allow the cookies to set. Enjoy!
