Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 113 grams unsalted butter
- 170 grams dark chocolate (chopped or chips)
- 150 grams granulated sugar
- 100 grams brown sugar (packed)
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 130 grams all-purpose flour
- 30 grams cocoa powder (unsweetened)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 100 grams semisweet chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking trays with parchment paper.
In a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water, melt the unsalted butter and dark chocolate together. Stir until smooth, then remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and the melted chocolate mixture.
Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
If using, gently fold in the semisweet chocolate chips for an extra chocolatey touch.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop golf ball-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking trays, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centres still look slightly underbaked.
Remove the trays from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature to enjoy the soft, fudgy centres. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
