Ingredients
  

  • 6 tablespoons Butter
  • 1/2 cup Sugar
  • 1/4 cup Brown Sugar
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla
  • 1 cup Dark Chocolate Chips
  • 3/4 cup Flour
  • 1/4 cup Cocoa Powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • Flakey Salt Garnish

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a microwave-safe bowl, add in chocolate chips and butter.
    6 tablespoons Butter, 1 cup Dark Chocolate Chips
  • Melt the butter and chocolate chips together using 30-second increments on the microwave, stirring each time. This should take about a minute and a half.
  • Once the chocolate and butter are melted, set aside to cool slightly.
  • In a large bowl, add in eggs, brown sugar, and sugar.
    1/2 cup Sugar, 1/4 cup Brown Sugar, 2 Eggs
  • Using a mixer, whip the eggs and sugars together until they go from a bright yellow to a soft yellow, this should take about 4 minutes.
  • With the mixer on slow, gently pour in melted chocolate mixture to the egg mixture. Then add in vanilla.
    1 teaspoon Vanilla
  • When the chocolate is fully mixed in, add in flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
    3/4 cup Flour, 1/4 cup Cocoa Powder, 1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder, 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • After everything is mixed together, use a medium cookie scoop to scoop large dollops onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. *Please note: the batter will be a softer batter. See notes for details.
  • Bake for about 12 minutes, the tops will be crackly and just set, while the insides will be slightly soft.
  • Let cool for about a minute, sprinkle on some flakey salt, and enjoy!

Notes

*This is a softer batter, it's not going to be as firm as typical cookie dough. If you're having a hard time scooping the batter, you can let the batter rest for about 10 minutes. Baking the batter as soon as you can helps to create the most shine and crackle top, but you can let the batter rest if that helps!
