Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar (packed)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup milk chocolate chips (optional, for extra sweetness)
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 2: Cream Butter and Sugars
2. In a large bowl, cream together softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy using a hand or stand mixer.
Step 3: Add Eggs and Vanilla
3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract, until fully combined.
Step 4: Mix Dry Ingredients
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
Step 5: Fold in Chocolate Chips
5. Gently fold in the semi-sweet and milk chocolate chips, ensuring they’re evenly distributed.
Step 6: Scoop and Bake
6. Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
7. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the edges are set but the centers still look slightly soft.
Step 7: Cool and Serve
8. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Serve warm for gooey chocolate or at room temperature for a chewy texture.
Notes
- Use Room Temperature Ingredients: Ensures even mixing and a better texture.
- Don’t Overbake: The cookies will continue to set as they cool.
- Chill the Dough: For thicker cookies, chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking.
- Experiment with Mix-Ins: Try adding chopped nuts, white chocolate chips, or dried fruit for variety.
