Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 115 grams unsalted butter
- 150 grams granulated sugar
- 150 grams brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 190 grams all-purpose flour
- 40 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 200 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter in short intervals, stirring after each to ensure it doesn’t overheat. Allow the butter to cool slightly.
Add the granulated sugar and brown sugar to the melted butter and mix until smooth and creamy.
Whisk in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract, until fully incorporated.
In a separate medium-sized bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the cookies soft and tender.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a medium cookie scoop or a tablespoon, portion out the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.
Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers still appear slightly soft. Do not overbake, as they will continue to firm up as they cool.
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your Seriously Chocolate Cookies with a glass of cold milk or your favorite hot beverage!
