Ingredients

  • butter
  • brown sugar
  • granulated sugar
  • vanilla extract
  • egg
  • flour
  • cocoa
  • baking soda
  • kosher salt
  • semi sweet chips
  • bittersweet bar

See exact quantities in recipe card below.

Instructions

First, preheat the oven to 350 F. Next, line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. I like using parchment for this recipe more than silicone. To start the cookies you will then microwave the butter in a microwave safe bowl until 90% melted. Whisk the butter until it is completely melted. Add the sugars; mix until well-combined. Stir in vanilla and egg until incorporated. Add the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix dough until just combined. Dough should be soft and a little sticky. Then, stir in chocolate chips and pieces. Finally, Scoop out 1 ½ tablespoons of dough (medium cookie scoop) and place 2 inches apart on baking sheet. These will then bake for 7-10 minutes, or until cookies are set. They will be puffy and still look a little underbaked in the middle.

SERIOUSLY SO EASY! And see how delicious they are in the YouTube link below





Equipment

Quality kitchen tools make all the difference. I love having my Kitchen Aid Mixer handy for cookies and good quality vanilla is so important. With this recipe you don't even need the mixer! With the melted butter is comes together easily. However, I LOVE my baking supplies and want to share them with you! Follow this LINK to see some of my favs!

Tips

  • Parchment Paper is so much better for these cookies...trust me!
  • Stir just until there are no streaks and it is all just combined.
  • Don't skip the bittersweet bar....soooooo good!
  • Pull out when edges are set and they are still slightly puffy!

Storage

These cookies stay great in an airtight container for 3-4 days. Don't forget my trick of keeping a slice of bread on top of a piece of parchment in your container to keep them soft!

These also freeze great for 2 months!
