🕒 Prep Time: 15 min | Cook Time: 12 min | Total Time: 27 min
Ingredients:
- 1 cup (170g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- ⅔ cup (130g) granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ¼ cup (30g) all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ tsp baking powder
- Pinch of salt
- Optional: extra chocolate chips for topping
Step-by-Step Instructions:
- Melt the Chocolate
In a heatproof bowl, melt the chocolate chips and butter together until smooth. Let it cool slightly. - Mix Wet Ingredients
Whisk sugar, eggs, and vanilla until thick and pale. This step adds that signature brownie crackle top. - Combine with Chocolate
Slowly stir the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture until glossy and rich. - Add Dry Ingredients
Sift in flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Fold gently until just combined—don’t overmix! - Scoop and Bake
Drop spoonfuls of dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Add extra chocolate chips on top if desired. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 10–12 minutes, until the edges are set but centers look slightly soft. - Cool & Enjoy
Let the cookies rest on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack. They’ll firm up with that fudgy, chewy texture we all love!
Pro Tips:
- Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
- Add a sprinkle of sea salt before baking for a gourmet twist.
- Chill the dough 20 minutes if you want thicker cookies.
