  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup butter
  • ¾ cup darkchocolate chips or chunks
  • 1 large egg at room temperature
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar

Instructions

  • Start by preheating the oven to 350F then line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the flour, cocoa powder, cornstarch baking powder and salt. Set aside.
    ½ cup all purpose flour, 2 tablespoon cocoa powder, ½ tablespooon cornstarch, ½ teaspoon baking powder, ¼ teaspoon salt
  • In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter and chocolate chips in 30-second intervals. Make sure to stir in between each time. Once fully melted add in the cocoa powder and mix well to combine then set aside.
    ¼ cup butter, ¾ cup darkchocolate chips
  • While the butter and chocolate mixture in melting, whisk the room-temperature egg and both the granulated sugar and brown sugar using a stand mixer or a hand mixer. Beat on medium-high speed for 5 minutes or until the mixture is light and airy and has almost doubled in size.

  • Slowly add the chocolate mixture to the egg mixture and gently fold. Add in the dry ingredients to the wet mixture again and fold using a rubber spatula. Avoid over-mixing, you want to fold in the dry mixture just until it's combined.
  • Using a small cookie scoop (about 2 tablespoons worth), drop the batter in balls onto the parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches in between each cookie. Bake for 9 minutes.
  • Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring them to a cooling rack to cool completely!
