Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy using a hand mixer or stand mixer. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
Step 3
Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then mix in the vanilla extract.
Step 4
In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing to ensure soft cookies.
Step 6
Fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula or wooden spoon to distribute them evenly throughout the dough.
Step 7
Scoop out rounded tablespoons of cookie dough and place them onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes. The cookies should look slightly underbaked in the center but will firm up as they cool.
Step 9
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Serve warm or store in an airtight container for up to 5 days. Enjoy your Perfect Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookies!
