Ingredients
Butter and Sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
Wet Ingredients
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Add-ins
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and promote even baking.
- Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, incorporating air for tender cookies.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt to evenly distribute the leavening agents and cocoa.
- Mix Dry into Wet: Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing gently until fully incorporated without overworking the dough.
- Fold in White Chocolate Chips: Carefully fold the white chocolate chips into the dough, ensuring they are evenly distributed without breaking the chips.
- Scoop Dough: Using a spoon or cookie scoop, place the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving enough space between each cookie to allow for spreading.
- Bake Cookies: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers remain soft.
- Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely, which helps them set properly before serving.
Notes
- Do not overbake the cookies to keep them soft and chewy.
- Using dark cocoa powder will enhance the chocolate flavor.
- Store the cookies in an airtight container to maintain freshness for up to 4 days.
