Soft Chocolate Cookies

**This is a super yummy recipe that I found on Allrecipes.com. The cookies are really truly soft and oh so yummy! They are very versatile. You could make thumb print cookies and add your favorite jam or you could use different flavors of extract or add some buttercreme for cookie sandwiches! A truly yummy cake like cookie that my family just loves!**

Ingredients

1 cup butter or margarine, softened
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
2/3 cup baking cocoa
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
confectioners' sugar

In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla. Combine the flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt; gradually add to creamed mixture. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour or until easy to handle. Roll into 1-in. balls. Place 2 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. Flatten with a fork if desired. Bake at 350 degrees F for 8-10 minutes or until the edges are firm. Remove to wire racks. Dust warm cookies with confectioners' sugar.
