Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients:

  • 1 cup (170 grams) semisweet chocolate chips
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup (100 grams) granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup (50 grams) cocoa powder

Dry Ingredients:

  • 1/4 cup (30 grams) all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Wet and Flavoring Ingredients:

  • 1/4 cup (57 grams) unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Heat the oven to 350F (175C) and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper for optimal non-stick surface.
  2. Create a luxurious chocolate base by melting chocolate chips and butter together, whisking until achieving a silky, uniform consistency.
  3. In a separate mixing bowl, combine sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract, vigorously whisking until the mixture becomes light and aerated.
  4. Introduce the molten chocolate mixture into the egg blend, stirring gently to create a rich, glossy foundation.
  5. Carefully incorporate dry ingredients – flour, baking powder, salt, and cocoa powder – folding delicately to maintain the batter’s airiness without overmixing.
  6. Using a cookie scoop or spoon, deposit uniform dollops of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring adequate spacing between each cookie.
  7. Bake for 8-10 minutes, watching for set edges and a slightly soft center, which indicates perfect fudgy texture.
  8. Transfer cookies to a wire cooling rack, allowing them to firm up and develop a delicate crackled surface before serving.

Notes

  • Ensure chocolate and butter are melted slowly to prevent burning, using a double boiler or microwave in short bursts.
  • Chill the dough for 15 minutes before baking to help cookies maintain a fudgy texture and prevent excessive spreading.
  • Use high-quality dark chocolate for deeper, richer flavor and more intense chocolate experience.
  • For gluten-free version, substitute all-purpose flour with almond flour or gluten-free baking mix to accommodate dietary restrictions.
