Ingredients
½ cup unsalted butter, melted
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
⅓ cup cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)
Instructions
- Prepare the Dough: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter and sugar until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla extract, whisking until fully combined.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: Sift in cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Stir until the mixture is smooth. Gradually add flour, mixing until a thick batter forms. Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Shape the Cookies: Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded dough balls onto the baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake the Cookies: Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are slightly underbaked. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Serve: Dust with powdered sugar if desired, and enjoy!
Notes
Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days at room temperature.
For a different flavor, try using dark chocolate chips or white chocolate chips.
For the softest cookies, don’t overbake—remove them when the centers are slightly underbaked.
