Instructions

In a medium bowl combine the flour, cocoa powders, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

In a large bowl, use an electric hand mixer to cream together the butter and sugars for 2-3 minutes until light & fluffy.

Beat in the egg and vanilla until fully combined.

Scrape down the bowl, then add the dry ingredients and mix on low speed until just combined.

Fold in the roughly chopped chocolate with a rubber spatula until evenly distributed.

Using a 2 tablespoon cookie scoop, portion the dough onto a small parchment lined baking sheet. Freeze for 15-30 minutes.

Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.

Place the frozen cookie dough balls on the baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Top each of them with more chopped chocolate if desired. Bake for 10-12 minutes.

Once the cookies come out of the oven, immediately use a round cookie cutter or glass to scoot the edges in and make them perfectly round.

Allow to cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet, and enjoy!

Tips & Tricks (5)

Brown Your Butter for Depth 🧈
Brown the unsalted butter before mixing to add a nutty, complex flavor that complements the double cocoa and enhances overall richness without extra ingredients.
Blend Your Cocoa Powders Strategically 🫗
Sift together both Dutch-processed and black cocoa powder to eliminate lumps and ensure even distribution, which prevents bitter pockets and creates uniform chocolate flavor throughout.
Chill Dough for Superior Texture ❄️
Freeze the dough for at least 15-20 minutes before baking to prevent excessive spreading, allowing the cookies to develop chewy centers while the edges set up with the ideal crispness.
Use Room Temperature Eggs for Emulsion 🥚
Bring eggs to room temperature before mixing to create a proper emulsion with the butter and sugars, resulting in a smoother dough that incorporates air for better texture and rise.
Underbake by 30 Seconds 🕐
Remove cookies when edges are set but centers still look slightly underdone—they'll continue cooking on the hot baking sheet and develop that signature soft, fudgy center with chewy edges.
