These Chai Chocolate Chip cookies are loaded with chai masala spices and melty dark chocolate chunks. These cookies are soft and fudgy with crisp edges. Similar to my cozy chocolate chip cookies this recipe is easy to prep in 15 minutes and it mades a TON of cookies. It freezes well so make a double batch to enjoy during to holidays with a cup of Homemade Hot Chocolate.

Instructions

  1. To a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, allspice, black pepper and salt together. Set aside.
  2. To the bowl of a stand-up mixer with the paddle attachment (you can also do this with a hand-mixer or by hand in a medium/large bowl), add the melted butter, brown sugar and white sugar. Beat together until nice and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, until combined. Pour in the vanilla extract and beat once more.
  3. In one batch, add the flour. You will probably have to lift up the head part of your mixer to be able to add it all at once. Cover the mixer with a clean kitchen towel and turn it on low speed. Mix until the flour is mostly combined and then increase speed until you no longer see any flecks of flour. Pour in the chocolate chunks and mix one last time. Transfer the dough to the fridge to chill for an hour or up to 2 days.
  4. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  5. Using a medium cookie scoop, scoop out balls of dough. If it’s super chilled, you may need to push some dough into the scoop so it’s nice and compact and then release the lever. I like to add all the balls of cookie dough to a sheet of parchment versus scooping dough, as I bake.
  6. Transfer 6 to 7 balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them a part because these do spread. Place in the oven and bake for about 7 to 8 minutes. If the dough is super cold, it may need up to 10 minutes to bake. They should be light to medium golden brown. Sprinkle with a few pinches of salt upon exiting the oven. Repeat until you’ve baked all the cookies.
  7. To freeze, add the cookie dough balls to a baking sheet and stick in the freezer until very cold, about 20 minutes and then transfer to a freezer-safe plastic bag.

Notes

  • Make cookie dough in advance – You can make the dough and store in the fridge for up to 2 days tightly wrapped with plastic wrap.
  • How to freeze cookie dough – Form cookie dough into balls, place on a sheet pan then freeze until very cold, about 20 minutes. Transfer to a freezer-safe bag. Keep in the freezer for up to 3 months. When you’re ready, bake from frozen.
