Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 225 grams Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 60 grams Unsalted butter
- 150 grams Granulated sugar
- 100 grams Brown sugar
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 120 grams All-purpose flour
- 30 grams Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 100 grams Dark chocolate chunks (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a heatproof bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and unsalted butter. Melt them together over a double boiler or in the microwave in 30-second increments, stirring well after each interval, until smooth. Let the mixture cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until the mixture is well-combined and slightly frothy.
Fold the cooled chocolate-butter mixture into the sugar-egg mixture until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing to maintain a chewy texture.
If using, fold in the dark chocolate chunks for an extra burst of chocolate in every bite.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart as the cookies will spread slightly during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers look slightly underbaked. This ensures a chewy texture.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days and enjoy the chewy, chocolaty goodness!
