Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 0.75 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1.5 teaspoons espresso powder
- 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup dark chocolate chunks (optional)
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 butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, salt, and espresso powder.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and optional dark chocolate chunks, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still soft.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
