Ingredients
Scale
For the Cookies:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter and sugar until smooth. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, and mix until well combined.
- Add Dry Ingredients: Sift in the cocoa powder and stir until fully incorporated. Add the flour, baking powder, and salt, stirring just until a thick batter forms.
- Finish the Dough: Fold in mini chocolate chips if using. Drop tablespoon-sized scoops of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake: Bake for 9 to 11 minutes, or until the cookies are set around the edges but still soft in the center.
- Cool and Enjoy: Allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, use Dutch-processed cocoa.
- You can also sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on top before baking for added depth.
- These cookies are best enjoyed slightly warm.
