Ingredients:
- ¾ cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven and prepare baking sheets: Preheat the oven to 350°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Cream butter and sugar: In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add egg and vanilla: Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully combined.
- Mix dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Combine wet and dry ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Scoop and bake: Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the baking sheets. Bake for 8–10 minutes until edges are set and centers are slightly soft.
- Cool and enjoy: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Do not overbake to keep cookies soft and chewy.
- For extra richness, use dark chocolate chips or sprinkle sea salt on top before baking.
