Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 113 grams unsalted butter
- 200 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 150 grams granulated sugar
- 100 grams light brown sugar
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 150 grams all-purpose flour
- 30 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 50 grams red and green sprinkles
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Melt the unsalted butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips together in a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water, stirring until smooth. Alternatively, melt them in the microwave in 30-second increments, stirring between each until fully melted. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, light brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and slightly fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Slowly pour the melted chocolate mixture into the sugar and egg mixture, stirring until fully combined.
Sift in the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until a thick dough forms.
Gently fold in half of the red and green sprinkles, reserving the other half for decoration.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving at least 2 inches of space between each cookie.
Sprinkle the remaining red and green sprinkles on top of each cookie for a festive touch.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops are slightly cracked. Be careful not to overbake; the centers should remain soft and fudgy.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve these Christmas Fudge Cookies with a warm mug of hot cocoa and enjoy the holiday cheer!
