Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together using a hand or stand mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time to the butter and sugar mixture, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
Fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula or wooden spoon, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers look slightly underbaked. Do not overbake as the cookies will continue to set as they cool.
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the sheets for 5 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or freeze for longer storage.
