Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • ½ cup unsalted butter
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Add-ins

  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and salt until evenly combined.
  3. Prepare Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, melt the unsalted butter and mix it with the eggs and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  4. Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just blended; be careful not to overmix to maintain a fudgy texture.
  5. Add Chocolate Chips: Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips evenly throughout the cookie dough to add bursts of chocolate in every bite.
  6. Shape and Bake: Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them evenly. Bake for 10-12 minutes until the edges are set but the centers remain soft and fudgy.
  7. Cool: Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely for best texture.

Notes

  • For extra fudginess, slightly underbake the cookies.
  • Use room temperature eggs for better mixing.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container to keep them soft.
  • Feel free to substitute semi-sweet chocolate chips with dark or milk chocolate chips as preferred.
  • Adding a pinch of espresso powder can enhance the chocolate flavor.
