Ingredients
For the Cookie Dough
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
1 cup (200 g) brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup (100 g) granulated sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups (250 g) all-purpose flour
1/2 cup (50 g) unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup (170 g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup (90 g) white chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
Brown the Butter:
In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Continue cooking, stirring frequently, until the butter turns golden brown and has a nutty aroma (about 5-7 minutes). Be careful not to burn it!
Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
Make the Cookie Dough:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the browned butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Mix until well combined.
Add the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth.In another bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
Fold in the semi-sweet and white chocolate chips.
Chill the Dough:Cover the dough and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes (or up to 24 hours for deeper flavor).
Preheat the Oven:Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Bake the Cookies:
Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still soft.
They will continue to cook on the baking sheet once removed from the oven.
Cool and Serve:
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy!These cookies are rich, chocolatey, and wonderfully chewy—perfect for any chocolate lover!
