Granulated sugar

Brown sugar
-
Eggs, room temperature
-
Vanilla extract
-
All-purpose flour
-
Unsweetened cocoa powder (dark or Dutch-processed)

Dark chocolate chips or chunks (semi-sweet, bittersweet, or mix)

Instructions
Preheat & Prepare Pans
1.Preheat oven to 325–350 °F (160–175 °C). Line baking sheets with parchment or silicone liners.
Cream Butter & Sugars
2. Beat butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Add Eggs & Flavor
3. Mix in eggs one at a time, then add vanilla extract until smooth.
Mix Dry Ingredients
4. In a separate bowl, whisk flour, cocoa powder, baking soda (or powder), and salt.
Combine Wet + Dry
5. Gradually add dry ingredients to wet mixture. Stir just until combined—don’t overmix.
Add Chocolate
6. Fold in chocolate chips or chunks evenly.
Chill (if needed)
7. If dough is soft or sticky, chill briefly to prevent excess spreading.
Shape & Bake
8. Scoop or roll dough into balls, spacing apart on sheets. Press a few chocolate pieces on top for looks.
9. Bake 10–15 minutes until edges are set and tops are crackled. Centers may look slightly soft—this is perfect.
Cool
10. Let cookies rest on sheets for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
-
Use Dutch-processed cocoa for the deepest flavor and color.
-
Don’t overbake—soft centers give the best fudgy texture.
-
Chill dough for thicker cookies with less spread.
-
Press extra chocolate on top before baking for a bakery-style finish.
