Ingredients
Cookies
- 1 cup (2 sticks / 227 g) unsalted butter
- ½ cup (50 g) Dutch-process cocoa powder
- 1 cup (200 g) light brown sugar, packed
- ½ cup (100 g) granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2 ¼ cups (281 g) all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 cups (340 g) semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips, or a mix of chocolate chunks and chips
Instructions
- In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter completely.
- Add the Dutch-process cocoa powder and whisk until smooth and glossy. The mixture should look like a thick chocolate sauce.
- Let the mixture cool for 5 to 10 minutes before continuing.
- Add the brown sugar and granulated sugar to the bloomed cocoa mixture. Whisk until well combined.
- Add the eggs and vanilla and mix until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cornstarch, and salt.
- Gradually stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined.
- Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Cover the dough and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 days. Chilling helps the cookies hold their shape and develops deeper chocolate flavor.
- When ready, preheat oven to 350°F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Scoop the dough into portions (about 2 to 3 tablespoons per cookie) and place them 2 to 3 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers still look slightly underdone.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
