Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter and let it cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, dark brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth and creamy.
Add the egg, vanilla extract, and passion fruit puree to the mixture. Whisk until fully incorporated.
In another bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, Dutch-process cocoa powder, espresso powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring with a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the dark chocolate chunks evenly throughout the dough.
Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to portion the dough into 12 equal balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still soft.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy the rich, chocolatey cookies with their unique passion fruit undertone!
