Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large bowl, beat the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together using a hand or stand mixer on medium-high speed until creamy and smooth (about 2 minutes).
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture. Beat on medium speed until combined.
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until fully incorporated.
Gently fold in the chocolate chips using a rubber spatula.
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.
Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers look slightly underbaked. Do not overbake to ensure a chewy texture.
Remove the cookies from the oven and cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
