Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Extra chocolate chips for topping

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Melt chocolate chips and butter together until smooth and glossy.
  3. Mix in granulated sugar and brown sugar until well combined.
  4. Add eggs one at a time and stir in vanilla extract.
  5. In another bowl whisk flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
  6. Fold dry ingredients into the chocolate mixture until just combined.
  7. Scoop cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet with space between each.
  8. Press a few extra chocolate chips on top of each cookie.
  9. Bake for 10–12 minutes until crackly on top and slightly set.
  10. Let cookies cool on the tray for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

For thicker cookies, chill the dough for 20–30 minutes before baking.
Do not overbake to keep the centers soft and fudgy.
Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor.
Cookies will firm up slightly as they cool.
