Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookies
Description
This cookie recipe blends creamed butter with white and brown sugars, followed by eggs and vanilla to form a smooth base. A combination of all-purpose flour and a mix of regular and dark cocoa powders creates a chocolate-rich dough. Baking soda and salt provide leavening and flavor balance. After mixing, chocolate chips are folded in to add pockets of melted chocolate in the finished cookies.
The dough is portioned using a large cookie scoop onto lined baking sheets to maintain consistent size and spacing. Baking at 350°F for roughly 10 to 12 minutes yields cookies with edges that begin to firm but centers that stay soft and tender. After baking, cooling on the pan briefly helps set their shape before transferring to racks to cool completely for storage.
The result is a rich, chocolate-dense cookie with a moist crumb and varied chocolate textures from the cocoa powder and chips combined. These cookies keep well in an airtight container and are a straightforward choice for chocolate lovers.
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter
- 1 cup sugar
- 3/4 cup brown sugar tightly packed
- 2 egg
- 2 tsp vanilla
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/4 cups cocoa powder I prefer to do a mix of regular and dark cocoa powder
- 2 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 1/2 cups chocolate chips such as milk chocolate, dark chocolate and semi-sweet, assorted
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat butter until light and creamy. Add in sugar and brown sugar and beat until well combined. Add in eggs, one at a time, mixing until each is fully incorporated into batter. Add in vanilla and mix.
- In a separate bowl, combine flours, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt. Slowly add dry mixture to wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Stir in chocolate chips.
- Using a large cookie scoop, scoop cookie dough onto baking sheet. A large cookie scoop holds about 3 tablespoons of cookie dough. Space dough at least 2" apart.
- Bake for approximately 10-12 minutes. Cookies should be starting to firm up but still soft in the middle. Remove from oven and allow to cool on pan on a wire rack for at least five minutes. Repeat with remaining dough. Allow to cool completely prior to storing. Store in an airtight container.
