Equipment

  • Mixing bowls (1 large, 1 medium)
  • Electric hand mixer or stand mixer
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Silicone spatula
  • Cookie scoop or tablespoon
  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper or silicone baking mat
  • Cooling rack
  • Oven

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup 113g unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips or chunks for extra texture

Instructions
 

  • Gently melt dark chocolate and butter over a double boiler, stirring until the mixture turns luxuriously smooth and glossy.
  • Whisk the sugars and eggs until the mixture becomes smooth, airy, and noticeably thick.
  • Fold in the chocolate mixture and vanilla.
  • Delicately sift flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt into the mix to create a silky batter with flawless texture in every bite.
  • Fold the ingredients together gently until just blended, then stir in the chocolate chips for bursts of rich, melty goodness in every bite.
  • Refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes—this key step helps develop flavor and ensures perfectly shaped, chewy cookies every time.
  • Scoop dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Bake at 175°C (350°F) for 10-12 minutes. Let cool slightly before removing.

Notes

These cookies go beyond dessert—they're a delicious fusion of brownie richness and cookie comfort, delivering the ultimate chewy-chocolate experience in every bite. Refrigerating the dough allows the chocolate flavors to mature and gives the cookies that ideal balance of softness and structure. Bakery-style cookies every time. If you're craving a more luxurious twist, sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt on top right before baking—this brings out the depth of the chocolate like nothing else. And remember: slightly underbaking is your secret weapon for that irresistible gooey center. Let them cool just enough to handle, then enjoy warm for the full brownie-cookie experience.
