Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 2 teaspoons Pure vanilla extract
- 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1.5 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.75 cups Dark chocolate chunks
- 0.25 teaspoon Flaky sea salt (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the cookies soft and chewy.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and dark chocolate chunks evenly into the dough using a spatula.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Optional: Sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt on each cookie for a sweet-salty flavor combination.
Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are just set but the centers are still soft (do not overbake).
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm for gooey goodness, or store in an airtight container for up to 5 days (if they last that long). Enjoy!
