Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 115 grams Unsalted butter
- 150 grams Granulated sugar
- 100 grams Brown sugar
- 1 unit Large egg
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 130 grams All-purpose flour
- 40 grams Cocoa powder (unsweetened)
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 150 grams Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoons Milk (optional, for softer dough)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, melt the unsalted butter. Allow it to cool slightly.
Add the granulated sugar and brown sugar to the melted butter, whisking until combined and smooth.
Mix in the egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a thick dough starts to form. If the dough feels too stiff, add a tablespoon of milk to soften it slightly.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips using a spatula or wooden spoon.
Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each ball.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8–10 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still slightly soft.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your Fudgy Cocoa Drops with a glass of milk or as a sweet treat any time!
