Units
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet or dark chocolate chunks
- Optional: flaky sea salt for topping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in eggs one at a time, then mix in vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix until combined.
- Fold in chocolate chunks, reserving some for topping.
- Scoop dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing cookies a few inches apart.
- Top each cookie with extra chocolate chunks and sprinkle with flaky sea salt if desired.
- Bake for 10–12 minutes until edges are set and centers are still soft.
- Cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
Notes
- Chill dough for 30–60 minutes for less spreading and deeper flavor.
- Use white chocolate, peanut butter chips, or a mix of chocolates for variety.
- Add chopped nuts for crunch or espresso powder for mocha flavor.
- Freeze dough balls for future baking—add 1–2 minutes to baking time if frozen.
