Ingredients
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup unsalted butter
2 large eggs
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
flaky sea salt (optional for topping)
Instructions
1. Melt chocolate chips and butter together in a heat-safe bowl until smooth; let cool slightly.
2. In a large bowl, whisk eggs, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until thick and pale.
3. Stir in melted chocolate and vanilla extract until fully combined.
4. Sift in flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Fold until incorporated.
5. Chill the dough in the fridge for 20–30 minutes.
6. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Scoop tablespoon-sized portions onto parchment-lined baking sheets.
7. Bake for 9–11 minutes, until tops are crackly and edges are just set.
8. Optionally, sprinkle with flaky sea salt immediately after baking.
9. Cool on the baking sheet before transferring.
Notes
Do not overbake—cookies should look slightly underdone in the center.
Chilling the dough is key for those glossy tops and fudgy centers.
