Ingredients

• 1.25 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.5 cups unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 cups unsalted butter (softened)
• 0.75 cups granulated sugar
• 0.25 cups light brown sugar (packed)
• 1 pieces large eggs
• 1 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

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 all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

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

Step 4

Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture, and mix until fully incorporated.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as necessary to ensure the dough is evenly mixed.

Step 6

Using a small cookie scoop or a tablespoon, scoop rounded portions of dough and place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Flatten each ball slightly with the back of a spoon or your fingers.

Step 7

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

Step 8

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

Step 9

Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
