Triple Chocolate Cookies

My husband always picks on me that I have so many cookbooks and I never use any of them, so I dug up one of my cookbooks that I knew had a heavenly triple chocolate cookie recipe in it. So out came Ellie Krieger's, Food You Crave and best of all its actually a healthier cookie, that is just delicious!
