Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.75 cup Light brown sugar
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1.5 cups Dark chocolate chips
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 3
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition, then mix in the vanilla extract.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Step 6
Fold in the dark chocolate chips using a spatula or wooden spoon.
Step 7
Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches apart between each cookie as they will spread slightly during baking.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still soft. Do not overbake to maintain chewiness.
Step 9
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
