Categories     Dessert

Time 56m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup + 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips, divided
2 and 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into tiny cubes
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
2 large eggs, at room temperature
2 tablespoons whole milk, at room temperature
2 and 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Flaky sea salt, for sprinkling
Extra chocolate chips, for decorating

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees (F). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper, lightly spray them with non-stick spray, and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt; set aside.
  • In a large, microwave safe bowl, combine one cup of the chocolate chips and the butter. Heat them in the microwave, on low power, in 15 second increments, mixing in between each, until butter and chocolate are completely melted and can easily be whisked smooth.
  • In a large bowl whisk together both sugars and the eggs, beating until well combined. Beat in milk and vanilla. Then fold in the melted chocolate, stirring until evenly combined.
  • Using a rubber spatula, fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, stirring just until combined. Do not over mix here!
  • Fold in the remaining chocolate chips, stirring until everything is just combined.
  • Scoop 1/4 cupfuls of the batter directly onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving room for spreading.
  • Bake, one tray at a time, for 15 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops are dark and shiny.
  • Press a few extra chocolate chunks on top of the warm cookies and sprinkle with sea salt.
  • Allow cookies to completely cool on the baking sheet for one hour before serving!

THICK AND FUDGY DOUBLE CHOCOLATE COOKIES

These Thick and Fudgy Double Chocolate Cookies are rich, decadent, and perfect with a glass of cold milk. I'll take 50, please!

Provided by Pinch of Yum

Categories     Dessert

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup salted butter (melted and cooled - directions in step one)
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 eggs
3 tablespoons strong coffee
2 2/3 cup all purpose flour (more if it's too sticky)
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Melt 1/2 cup butter in the microwave for 30-45 seconds or until completely melted. Transfer to the refrigerator or freezer and cool until solid, about 30 minutes. Leave the other 1/2 cup butter out on the counter to bring it to room temperature. If the butter is rock solid (usually from the freezer) I stick it back in the microwave for 10 seconds to get it workable again. See notes for more info.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. With an electric mixer (I usually just use a hand-held one), cream the melted/solid butter, room temperature butter, sugar, and vanilla until creamy and fluffy. Add the eggs and mix until just incorporated.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Add the flour mixture to the creamy butter mixture and mix until incorporated, adding the coffee gradually as you go. The dough should be thick and sticky, but dry enough to touch with your hands without making a huge mess. If it's still too sticky, add more flour. Stir in the chocolate chips.
  • Roll the dough into even balls (I got about 20 out of the whole batch) and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 8 minutes and transfer to a cooling rack right away. They will be underdone and super puffy, which makes them perfectly soft, thick, and fudgy when cooled.
