Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookies - WW

These are very rich and yummy and perfect for a little chocolate fix that I usually need.  If you are able to make 40, then they are 1 PointsPlus Weight Watchers but if you make 24 (like I did) they turned out amazing and are 2 PointsPlus each. Perfect amount of points and a perfect snack.

1 cup flour
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/8 tsp table salt
1/4 cup salted butter, softened
1/2 cup dark brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup sugar, granulated
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa
2 large egg whites
1/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, mini (I used regular)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Coat cookie sheets with cooking spray. Lightly spoon flour into a dry measuring cup; level with a knife.  Combine flour, backing soda and salt in a large bowl.  Beat butter and brown sugar with mixer at medium speed until light and fluffy; gradually add granulated sugar, beating well.  Add cocoa and egg whites, beating well.  Gradually add flour mixture, beating until blended.  Stir in chocolate chips. Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls 1 1/2 inches apart (if doing 24, just do them the normal cookie distance apart). Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes (some reviewers said 9).  Cool on pans 2 minutes or until firm.
