How to Make Chocolate Cowboy Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, sift together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon baking powder.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted margarine and 1 cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add ¾ cup packed brown sugar and beat until well combined.
  4. Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Stir in 1 cup chocolate chips, 1 cup chopped pecans (optional), and ½ cup quick-cooking oats.
  7. Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly soft. For crispier cookies, bake for an additional 2-3 minutes.
  9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
