Ingredients
Scale
Chocolate Ingredients:
- 1 cup (170 grams) semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted
- 1/2 cup (85 grams) chocolate chips
Wet Ingredients:
- 2 large eggs
- 3/4 cup (150 grams) granulated sugar
Dry Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup (60 grams) all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup (25 grams) cocoa powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Prepare the baking workspace by lining a sheet with parchment paper and heating the oven to 350°F.
- Vigorously whisk eggs and sugar in a mixing bowl until the mixture transforms into a light, creamy consistency.
- Incorporate melted chocolate into the egg mixture, stirring until achieving a uniform, glossy texture.
- Gently sift dry ingredients – flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt – directly into the wet mixture, folding carefully to create a cohesive batter.
- Optional: Enhance the chocolate intensity by folding in additional chocolate chips throughout the dough.
- Using a cookie scoop, distribute the rich chocolate dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving adequate space between each cookie.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, watching for slightly set edges and a soft center, which indicates perfect fudgy consistency.
- Remove from oven and allow cookies to rest on the baking sheet for 2-3 minutes to stabilize their structure.
- Transfer the delicate cookies to a wire cooling rack, permitting them to cool completely and develop their ultimate chewy texture.
Notes
- Ensure chocolate is melted slowly and carefully to prevent burning, using a double boiler or microwave in short bursts.
- Whisk eggs and sugar thoroughly until the mixture becomes pale and slightly fluffy, creating a lighter cookie texture.
- Use high-quality cocoa powder and dark chocolate for a rich, intense chocolate flavor that elevates the entire dessert.
- For gluten-free options, swap regular flour with almond flour or a gluten-free blend, maintaining the same measurement proportions.
