Ingredients

• 2.25 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.25 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 cup Unsalted butter, softened
• 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.75 cup Brown sugar, packed
• 2 Large eggs
• 3 tablespoons Kahlua coffee liqueur
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1.5 cups Dark chocolate chunks
• 0.25 teaspoon Optional: Sea salt flakes

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 brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Beat in the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each is well incorporated before adding the next.

Step 5

Mix in the Kahlua coffee liqueur and vanilla extract until fully combined.

Step 6

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed just until combined. Avoid overmixing.

Step 7

Gently fold in the dark chocolate chunks with a spatula, ensuring an even distribution.

Step 8

Scoop tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. If desired, lightly sprinkle a small pinch of sea salt flakes on top of each cookie.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers still look soft. Avoid over-baking for a chewy texture.

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 warm or store in an airtight container for up to 5 days. Enjoy the rich, chocolatey flavor with a hint of Kahlua!
