Ingredients

• 113 grams Unsalted butter
• 100 grams Granulated sugar
• 100 grams Brown sugar (packed)
• 1 large Egg
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 160 grams All-purpose flour
• 30 grams Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 120 grams Dark chocolate chips
• 70 grams Sliced almonds

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter in short intervals, ensuring it doesn't overheat.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Whisk together until smooth and creamy.

Step 4

Add the egg and vanilla extract to the sugar mixture and beat well until fully incorporated.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 6

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until a thick dough forms.

Step 7

Fold in the dark chocolate chips and sliced almonds until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 8

Using a tablespoon or a cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 9

Bake each sheet in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are set around the edges and slightly soft in the center.

Step 10

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

Step 11

Store the cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
