Chocolate Drop Cookies will satisfy any chocolate cravings you have. So moist and chewy that you can’t eat just one.
When I was a kid Nabisco made a chocolate snap cookie that came in a tiny box. Perfect size for kids.
I remember that there was an option of chocolate chip or chocolate snap and I always chose the chocolate snap because of the extreme chocolate flavor.
I actually was able to find a picture of the old boxes.
Cute aren’t they. What kid could turn this down?
Those cookies in the box were crunchy but I decided to make mine soft and chewy.
Either way I’m sold on the extreme chocolate flavor.
Dunk them in milk and you will understand why I love these so much.
I made mine on the small size to be more like the bite size ones I grew up with but you can make any size.
My kids are grown but they still enjoy bite size treats. It’s just more fun that way.
These remind me of the base cookie I used in my Texas Chocolate Cookies.

I remember those Nabisco cookies. The box is unforgettable. Do you use regular Hershey’s cocoa powder in these? Or would I use the dutch process one? Thank you.
