Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the mixture, then beat until fully combined.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a uniform dough forms.
Fold in the mini chocolate chips until evenly distributed in the dough.
Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
Gently flatten each ball of dough slightly with the palm of your hand or the back of a spoon.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are crisp and the centers are set.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your crispy chocolate cookies with a glass of milk or a cup of coffee!
