Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats and set them aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set the dry mixture aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to beat the softened 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 butter-sugar mixture. Beat until fully combined and smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the Ghirardelli semi-sweet and milk chocolate chips with a spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers still look slightly underbaked.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes. Then, transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy the cookies fresh or store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
