Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup powdered sugar
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips and unsalted butter together in 30-second intervals, stirring after each until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Gradually add the melted chocolate mixture to the egg mixture, stirring until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture in two additions, being careful not to overmix. The dough will be slightly sticky.
Using a small cookie scoop or a spoon, scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls.
Roll each dough ball in powdered sugar until fully coated, then place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still slightly soft.
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your Chocolate Delites with a cold glass of milk or a warm cup of coffee!
