Chocolate cookies are a type of baked good that consists of a cookie base made from flour, sugar, and other ingredients, with chocolate as one of its main flavor components. These treats can come in various shapes, sizes, textures, and levels of sweetness depending on the recipe used. They are typically enjoyed plain or with a glass of milk, but they can also be used to make desserts such as ice cream sundaes or layered with frosting for chocolate chip cookies.
