Ingredients
- 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.25 cups unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 1 cups unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cups granulated sugar
- 1 whole large egg
- 1.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.25 cups dark chocolate chips, melted
- 0.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons milk
Directions
Step 1
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
Step 2
In a stand mixer or using a hand mixer, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 3
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
Step 4
Gradually add the dry ingredients (flour mixture) to the wet ingredients, mixing until the dough comes together. Divide the dough into two equal portions.
Step 5
In a small bowl, whisk the cocoa powder and melted dark chocolate with the milk until smooth.
Step 6
Add the cocoa mixture to one portion of the dough, mixing until the color is evenly distributed.
Step 7
Roll out both portions of dough (plain and chocolate) separately between sheets of parchment paper into rectangles approximately 12 inches by 8 inches.
Step 8
Carefully place the chocolate dough rectangle on top of the plain dough rectangle, trimming the edges if necessary to align them.
Step 9
Starting from one of the shorter sides, tightly roll the dough into a log to create a swirl pattern. Wrap the dough log in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
Step 10
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 11
Unwrap the dough log and slice it into 1/4-inch-thick rounds using a sharp knife. Place the cookies about 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheets.
Step 12
Sprinkle each cookie with the finely chopped semi-sweet chocolate chips for an extra chocolatey finish.
Step 13
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are set but not browned.
Step 14
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 15
Serve and enjoy your luscious Double Chocolate Swirls with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage.
