Ingredients

• 1.75 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.5 cups Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground ginger
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground cardamom
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground cloves
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.75 cups Unsalted butter, softened
• 0.75 cups Brown sugar, packed
• 0.25 cups Granulated sugar
• 1 Egg
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Milk (any type)
• 1 cup Dark chocolate chips

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, cloves, black pepper, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Beat in the egg, vanilla extract, and milk until well combined.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 6

Fold in the dark chocolate chips using a spatula until evenly distributed.

Step 7

Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Lightly press down on each dough ball to flatten slightly.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers look slightly soft.

Step 10

Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Serve the cookies with a cup of chai or your favorite beverage, and enjoy the cozy flavors!
