Submitted by Jenica Caudill, Sales Representative. She says "The joy of sneaking brownie batter and chocolate chip cookie dough while baking these are combined here. Also, you have an excuse to drink wine while baking (if you needed one). Not to mention their rich, dark, color makes them immediately awe-worthy at parties!"
Combine, the flour, cocoa, salt and baking soda in a medium bowl and set aside.
In a large bowl, cream the sugars and butter until light and fluffy. Add the egg, vanilla and Merlot. Once combined, gradually add in the dry ingredients from the medium bowl. Mix well as you go. Lastly, fold in the chocolate chips. Place rounded tablespoons of dough onto a prepared baking pan, leaving two inches or so in between.
Bake in a preheated 375 degree oven for 8-10 minutes. Let cool slightly before transferring to a wire cooling rack.
