The perfect double chocolate cookies -- rich, chocolately, chewy and never fluffy! Plus no chilling!

Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter ((room temperature))
  • 2 cups granulated sugar ((400 grams))
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 2 large eggs ((room temperature))
  • 2 ¼ cups flour ((293 grams) (you can reduce to 2 cups for a thinner cookie))
  • ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups chocolate chips

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and line 3 baking sheets with parchment paper (optional).

  2. 2

    With an electric mixer, cream together butter and sugar until smooth, about 3-4 minutes. Add vanilla and eggs and beat until combined.

  3. 3

    Add flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt and mix until a dough forms (it should hold together easily but not be too sticky. Stir in chocolate chips.

  4. 4

    Roll dough into 1-2" balls and place 2 inches apart on prepared baking sheets (you can make larger cookies, but you'll need to be fewer to a pan and bake a little longer). Bake for 8-9 minutes until centers are just a tiny bit glossy in the center -- they will set as they cool.
