Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cubed
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup chocolate chunks or additional chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- Melt the chocolate and butter: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips and cubed butter together in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until smooth and fully melted. Let it cool slightly.
- Mix the wet ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined and slightly fluffy.
- Add the melted chocolate: Stir the cooled, melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture, mixing until smooth and fully incorporated.
- Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
- Add chocolate chunks: Gently fold in the chocolate chunks or extra chocolate chips, if using.
- Scoop the dough: Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. The dough will be thick and sticky.
- Bake the cookies: Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the cookies are slightly puffed and the edges are set. The centers should still look soft and fudgy.
- Cool: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- These cookies have a fudgy, brownie-like texture, so they may appear soft when you first take them out of the oven. Let them cool to set properly.
- For extra richness, try using dark chocolate chips or adding a pinch of espresso powder to enhance the chocolate flavor.
- Store cookies in an airtight container for up to 4 days at room temperature.
