Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 1/2 cup dark brown sugar packed
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Melt the butter in a microwave-safe bowl for about 30-45 seconds until just almost melted.
  • In a large mixing bowl or stand mixer, mix the butter and brown and granulated sugars until well combined.
  • Add the vanilla and egg to the bowl and whisk until it is incorporated into the sugar.
  • Add the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt and mix until it is just combined. The dough will be slightly sticky.
  • Stir in the chocolate chips.
  • Use a medium cookie scoop (2 tablespoons) to scoop out the dough, placing the cookies 2 inches apart on the baking sheet.
  • Bake for 7-10 minutes or until the cookies are set. They will look slightly under-baked in the middle, but the sides will be puffy and set.
  • Allow to cool for 5 minutes and move to a cooling rack.

Notes

  • Store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
  • Freeze the cookie dough by forming it into a ball and placing it in an airtight container. It will stay good for up to 3 months. When ready to bake, thaw it in the fridge overnight
