Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 100 grams Unsalted butter
- 150 grams Granulated sugar
- 50 grams Brown sugar
- 1 large Egg
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 150 grams All-purpose flour
- 30 grams Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 1 tablespoon Milk
- 150 grams Semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line two baking trays with parchment paper.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar using a hand or stand mixer until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the mixture and beat until fully incorporated.
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 just combined. The dough will be thick.
Stir in the milk to help bring the dough together, then fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips using a spatula.
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop rounded portions of dough onto the prepared baking trays, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are just set. The centers may still look slightly soft, but they will continue to firm up as they cool.
Remove the trays from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking trays for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. Enjoy your homemade Chocolate Drops!
