Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup semi-sweet or dark chocolate chunks
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth and fluffy.
- Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
- Fold in chocolate chunks evenly throughout the dough.
- Scoop generous tablespoons of dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing them about two inches apart.
- Bake for 10–12 minutes, until edges are set and centers are slightly soft.
- Let cookies cool on baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Chilling the dough is optional but helps reduce spreading.
- Use high-quality cocoa powder for the best flavor.
- Store in an airtight container to maintain chewiness.
- Freeze dough or baked cookies for longer storage.
