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 mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter and granulated sugar until smooth. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, whisking until fully combined. Sift in cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Mix until smooth. Gradually fold in the flour, followed by the chocolate chips.
- Shape the Cookies: Use a tablespoon or cookie scoop to drop rounded dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets. Space them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake the Cookies: Bake for 10–12 minutes or until edges are set and centers look slightly underbaked. Let cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
- Serve: Dust with powdered sugar if desired and enjoy with a glass of milk.
Notes
- For a firmer cookie, bake a minute or two longer.
- Can refrigerate dough for up to 24 hours before baking.
- Optional: Add chopped nuts or drizzle with chocolate ganache.
