Notes
Butter: I use salted butter in these cookies.
Cool room temperature: Cool room temperature butter should be about 68-70F. The butter should dent when pressed, but the stick of butter shouldn't be too warm or smooshy.

- Semi-sweet chocolate: I recommend using semisweet baking chocolate because it melts better. Chocolate chips can have additives that can make it more difficult to get smooth melted chocolate.
- Cocoa powder: I use regular unsweetened cocoa powder in this recipe. I haven't tried using Dutch-processed cocoa powder in these cookies.
- Flour: It's important to properly measure the flour by either weighing it or by sifting or stirring the flour to break it up, lightly spooning it into the measuring cup, and then leveling it. This helps to avoid getting too much flour in your cookie dough. Too much flour can make the dough crumbly.
