Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Equipment

  • mixing bowls
  • whisk
  • spatula
  • baking sheets
  • parchment paper
  • measuring cups and spoons
  • oven

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix melted butter, eggs, and vanilla until smooth.
  4. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir just until combined.
  5. Fold in chocolate chips evenly throughout the batter.
  6. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions onto prepared baking sheets, spacing evenly.
  7. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until edges are set and centers remain soft.
  8. Remove from oven and let cookies cool slightly on the pan.
  9. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Use high-quality cocoa powder for the best chocolate flavor. Avoid overbaking to maintain a fudgy texture—cookies will firm up as they cool. These cookies freeze well and are great for make-ahead baking.
