Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.5 cups Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.75 cups Unsalted butter (softened)
- 0.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cups Brown sugar (packed)
- 2 units Large eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cups Chocolate-covered raisins
- 0.5 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together using a hand or stand mixer until the mixture is light and creamy (about 2-3 minutes).
Add the eggs one at a time to the butter-sugar mixture, beating well after each addition. Then, mix in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the dough.
Fold in the chocolate-covered raisins and chocolate chips with a wooden spoon or spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers appear slightly underbaked. Do not overbake, as the cookies will continue to set as they cool.
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the sheets for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to wire racks to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your Chocolate Cookies with Chocolate Covered Raisins! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
