Ingredients
- ½ cup 115g unsalted butter
- 1 cup 170g semi-sweet chocolate chips
- ¾ cup 150g granulated sugar
- ¼ cup 50g brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
Instructions
Melt the Chocolate and Butter
- Combine and heat: In a microwave-safe bowl, add chocolate chips and butter.
- Melt in intervals: Microwave in 20-second bursts, stirring between each, until smooth and fully melted.
- Cool slightly: Let the mixture sit for a few minutes to cool down before mixing with eggs.
Mix the Wet Ingredients
- In a large bowl, whisk together granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract.
- Beat until the mixture is light, fluffy, and pale in color—about 1–2 minutes.
- Stir in the slightly cooled chocolate-butter mixture until fully combined.
Combine the Dry Ingredients
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula. Mix just until combined. The dough should be soft and thick.
Chill the Dough
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid.
- Chill the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. This helps the cookies hold their shape and develop a fudgier texture.
Bake the Cookies
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough and place them on the baking sheet, spaced about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 10–12 minutes, until the edges are set and the centers still look slightly soft.
Cool and Enjoy
- Let the cookies cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
- Enjoy warm for a gooey texture, or let cool completely for a classic chewy brownie cookie bite.
