Ingredients
- 200 grams dark chocolate
- 60 grams unsalted butter
- 150 grams granulated sugar
- 50 grams light brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 90 grams all-purpose flour
- 20 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 50 grams powdered sugar
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
Melt the dark chocolate and unsalted butter together in a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water. Stir occasionally until smooth, then set aside to cool slightly.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine granulated sugar and light brown sugar. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, and use a hand or stand mixer to beat the mixture on medium-high speed for 2-3 minutes until light and fluffy.
Step 4
Pour the melted chocolate mixture into the sugar and egg mixture, and mix on low speed until fully incorporated.
Step 5
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
Step 6
Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture in three additions, mixing on low speed after each addition until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 7
Cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to make it easier to handle.
Step 8
Place the powdered sugar in a shallow bowl. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of the dough and roll them into balls. Roll each ball generously in the powdered sugar, ensuring an even coating.
Step 9
Place the sugar-coated dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
Step 10
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes. The cookies should be soft in the center and have a crackled surface.
Step 11
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.
