Ingredients

1 cup unsalted butter, melted

1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup chocolate chips

Gather your ingredients to prepare these delightful cookies.

Directions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large bowl, combine the melted butter and granulated sugar. Mix well until fully combined.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined—be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the chocolate chips for an extra burst of chocolate goodness.
Drop spoonfuls of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving some space between each cookie.
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are set and the centers are just slightly underbaked for that soft texture.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Tips & Variations

Ingredient substitutions: If you’re out of unsalted butter, you can use margarine or coconut oil. For a dairy-free option, choose non-dairy chocolate chips and butter substitutes.
Optional variations: Try adding nuts, such as walnuts or pecans, for a crunchy texture, or sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on top before baking for a sweet and salty contrast.
Storage or reheating tips: Store any leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. To reheat, simply pop them in the microwave for a few seconds to enjoy that fresh-baked taste again.
