Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup butter, softened
- 0.75 cup sunflower seed butter
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, sunflower seed butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until creamy and smooth.
Add the vanilla extract and the egg to the butter mixture, and beat until fully incorporated.
Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula.
Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough and place them on the prepared baking sheets, keeping 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 soft.
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
