Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, using a hand or stand mixer, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add the vanilla extract and mix until combined.
In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips using a spatula or wooden spoon.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing each cookie about 2 inches apart.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still soft.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
