Ingredients
- 1 cup butter softened
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups milk chocolate chips
- 1 1/2 cups dark chocolate chunks
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine 1 cup butter (softened), 3/4 cup brown sugar, and 1/2 cup granulated sugar. Mix on low speed to incorporate, then increase to medium and beat until smooth, about 1 minute.
- Add 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Beat until just combined, about 30 seconds.
- Add 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Mix on low speed until just combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Fold in 2 cups milk chocolate chips and 1 1/2 cups dark chocolate chunks using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon.
- Divide the dough into 8 to 10 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball using your hands and place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them 4 to 5 per pan.
- Bake for 11 to 14 minutes, or until the tops are set.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 15 minutes before serving warm or transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes
- For smaller cookies portion into 24 equal-sized dough balls, about 2 ounces each. Bake at 400 degrees for about 8 minutes.
- For extra tall cookies, chill or freeze the dough balls before baking to reduce spreading and achieve chunky, bakery-style cookies.
- Freezing Dough Balls: Freeze pre-portioned dough balls on a baking sheet, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag. Bake directly from frozen at 400°F, adding 1–2 minutes to the baking time.
