Ingredients
- 120 grams Unsalted butter
- 150 grams Granulated sugar
- 100 grams Brown sugar (packed)
- 1 large Egg
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 200 grams All-purpose flour
- 40 grams Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 150 grams Semi-sweet chocolate chips
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Use an electric mixer to cream them together until the mixture is light and fluffy, around 2-3 minutes.
Step 3
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture. Mix until well combined.
Step 4
In a separate medium-sized bowl, sift 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, as it can make the cookies tougher.
Step 6
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips using a spatula or wooden spoon until evenly distributed.
Step 7
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers still appear slightly soft. Avoid overbaking for the softest texture.
Step 9
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy your soft chocolate cookies!
