Description

Decadent brownie cookies with a fudgy center and crackly tops, perfect for any occasion.


Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup chocolate chips


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment or silicone mats.
  2. Cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth and slightly fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla.
  4. Whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl.
  5. Gradually blend the dry mixture into the wet mixture until just combined, avoiding overmixing.
  6. Fold in the chocolate chips evenly through the dough.
  7. Drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto ungreased baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers still look slightly soft.
  9. Let cookies cool on baking sheets for a few minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.

Notes

For a dairy-free option, use vegan butter and dairy-free chocolate chips. For deeper chocolate flavor, replace half the chocolate chips with chopped dark chocolate.
