Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon instant espresso powder
- 1 cup dark chocolate, chopped
- 0.5 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
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 brown sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, and then mix 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 chopped dark chocolate and semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls 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 but the centers are still slightly soft. Do not overbake for a fudgy texture.
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.
Serve with a glass of milk or enjoy them as a decadent snack!
