Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Place a medium-sized saucepan over low heat and melt the unsalted butter.
Once melted, add the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and cocoa powder to the saucepan. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well-combined. Remove the saucepan from heat and allow it to cool slightly, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add the vanilla extract and stir until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the saucepan mixture, stirring gently until a thick dough forms.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop dough portions onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake each sheet in the preheated oven for 8-10 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 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy these decadent saucepan fudge cookies with a glass of cold milk or your favorite warm beverage.
