Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 0.5 cup brown sugar packed
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour sifted
  • 0.5 cup dark cocoa powder unsweetened
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 1.5 cups dark chocolate chunks
  • 1 tsp flaky sea salt for topping

Instructions
 

  • In a mixing bowl, beat softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
  • Mix in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla extract until well combined.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Fold in dark chocolate chunks.
  • Cover the dough and refrigerate for at least 40 minutes to allow the flavors to develop.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart. Sprinkle each cookie with flaky sea salt. Bake for 9-10 minutes or until edges are set.
  • Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Optional Equipment: A cookie scoop helps ensure even-sized cookies.
  • Customization: Use white chocolate chips for a contrast in flavors.
  • Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
  • Serving Tip: Warm slightly before serving for an even gooier texture.
