This soft and chewy chocolate cookie recipe is a family favorite! Cocoa powder makes our cookie dough rich and chocolatey, and we add lots (and lots) of chopped chocolate to turn them into double chocolate cookies. I use my electric hand mixer, but it struggles towards the end when adding the dry ingredients (watch video for reference). You might prefer a stand mixer, or as your hand-held mixer begins to struggle with the thick dough, switch to a spatula to mix in the remaining dry ingredients.
Ingredient:
- 2 ½ cups (325g) all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup (60g) unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 18 tablespoons (255g) unsalted butter at room temperature (2 ¼ sticks)
- 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
- 1 cup (213g) brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon espresso powder, optional, see tips
- 2 large eggs at room temperature
- 12 ounces (340g) chocolate chunks (2 cups)
