Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 piece large egg
- 2.25 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 cup dark chocolate chips, melted
- 0.5 cup white chocolate chips, melted
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar until light and fluffy (approximately 2 minutes).
Add the vanilla extract and egg, and mix again until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until a dough forms.
Divide the dough in half. To one half, mix in the unsweetened cocoa powder until evenly combined, creating a chocolate dough.
Wrap each dough (vanilla and chocolate) in plastic wrap, flatten slightly into discs, and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes to firm up the dough.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Roll out each dough between two sheets of parchment paper to about 1/4-inch thickness. Layer the chocolate dough over the vanilla dough and gently roll them together into a log. Slice the log into 1/4-inch thick rounds.
Place the sliced cookies onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 1 inch of space between them.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and slightly golden. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the cookies are fully cooled, drizzle the melted dark chocolate over the cookies in a striped pattern. Follow with the melted white chocolate for an alternating stripe design. Let the chocolate set before serving.
