Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (260g) all-purpose flour
  • ⅔ cup (65g) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup (170g) unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
  • ¾ cup (150g) granulated sugar
  • ½ cup (100g) packed brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups (270g) semisweet or bittersweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
  2. In a large bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the melted unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract until the mixture is glossy and thick.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, folding gently with a spatula until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
  6. Fold in the chocolate chips evenly into the dough.
  7. Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart. Makes about 24 cookies.
  8. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until edges look set but centers are still soft. Do not wait for cookies to look fully firm.
  9. Let cookies rest on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Use melted butter instead of softened for a fudgier texture. Avoid overmixing to keep cookies tender. Chill dough for 20 minutes if cookies spread too much. Baking times may vary by oven; watch closely. Cookies continue to cook on the baking sheet after removal from oven.
