Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 unit large eggs
- 1.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.25 cup cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup mini chocolate chips (optional, for folding in)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the unsalted butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the mixture is completely melted and smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and the cooled melted chocolate mixture. Whisk until well combined.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
If using mini chocolate chips, fold them gently into the dough for an extra burst of chocolatey goodness.
Using a small cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded amounts of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers look slightly underbaked. Do not overbake!
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
