Ingredients
- 113 grams unsalted butter
- 200 grams granulated sugar
- 100 grams dark brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 190 grams all-purpose flour
- 60 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 120 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 100 grams granulated sugar (for rolling)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter (about 30-45 seconds). Let it cool slightly.
Step 3
Add the granulated sugar and dark brown sugar to the melted butter, whisking until smooth and well combined.
Step 4
Crack in the eggs and add the vanilla extract. Whisk again until the mixture is creamy.
Step 5
In a separate medium bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
Step 6
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing with a spatula or wooden spoon until a dough forms.
Step 7
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Step 8
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, portion out the dough into 24 balls (about 1.5 tablespoons each).
Step 9
Roll each ball in the extra granulated sugar until fully coated and place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 5 cm (2 inches) apart.
Step 10
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still soft.
Step 11
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 12
Enjoy your sugar crusted chocolate cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite hot beverage!
