Southwestern Spicy Dark Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies

These were adapted from my moms basic chocolate chip cookies. I can't say it's an original recipe because I've seen others on-line that are very similar. I can say I believe they are somewhat unique. As with all of my favorite recipes, they have a nice after-burn, which I personally love. The dark cocoa I use in these is Hersheys (it's easy to find, not just the cocoa, the Dark chocolate cocoa) and the remaining dark chocolate should be of good or better quality.
