Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons milk (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, beat together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. If the dough is too thick or crumbly, add milk one tablespoon at a time until the dough reaches a scoopable consistency.
Fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula or wooden spoon.
Scoop about 1 1/2 tablespoons of cookie dough (or use a medium cookie scoop) for each cookie 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 soft.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your Yummy Chocolate Cookies with a cold glass of milk or store in an airtight container for up to a week.
