Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 113 grams unsalted butter
- 150 grams dark brown sugar, packed
- 60 ml molasses
- 1 unit large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 175 grams all-purpose flour
- 25 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 100 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 120 grams raisins
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, dark brown sugar, and molasses using a hand or stand mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract, and beat until fully incorporated.
In a separate medium-sized bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Fold in the chocolate chips and raisins using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon.
Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, portion out the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers still look slightly undercooked. The cookies will firm up as they cool.
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. Enjoy!
