Chocolate Cookies

Ingredients

• 2 cups white sugar
• 1 ¼ cups margarine, softened
• 2 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• ⅛ teaspoon salt
• 1 cup chopped walnuts

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Cream sugar and margarine in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at a time, then stir in vanilla.
3. Combine flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl. Add to the creamed mixture and mix until just blended. Stir in walnuts. Drop spoonfuls of dough 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheets.
