Double Chocolate Chip Cookies
These are probably my second favorite cookie with white chocolate macadamia nut taking the lead! They are pretty simple to assemble and they are a great treat for a party, gathering or just to have in your fridge for those late night chocolate cravings! We've all been there!
The tip to these cookies looking extra round is when placing them onto your parchment paper, roll them into round balls first. You don't need to flatten them because they will spread out some when baking. Also save some extra chocolate chips to press into the tops of the cookies before baking. They will have a crinkled look to them once done baking. This is probably my favorite part about this cookie! To make sure your cookie still stays perfectly round, after taking them out of the oven, use a round cookie cutter to place it over the cookie and rotate it clockwise for a few seconds.
INGREDIENTS:
-1 cup all purpose flour
-1/3 cup cocoa powder
-1 TSP baking powder
-1/4 tsp salt
-1/3 cup unsalted butter (slightly melted)
-1/4 cup dark brown sugar
-1/4 cup light brown sugar
-1/2 regular sugar
-1 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
-1 egg and 1 egg yolk (room temperature)
-1 cup dark chocolate chips and a handful for the top of the cookies
-dash of powdered sugar to sprinkle on top
METHOD:
In medium size bowl sift the flour. Add cocoa powder, baking soda and salt. Whisk together until there are no clumps.
In separate bowl, mix together melted butter, all three sugars and the vanilla extract. Pour in eggs and mix together until a smooth consistency forms. Add your dry ingredients into your wet ingredients. Stir carefully not to over mix. Start pouring in the dark chocolate chips while you are still mixing the batter together. Mix until just combined. Chill the dough for about 5-10 mins. Preheat your oven to 350 F and put parchment paper onto a cookie sheet. Take out mixture, roll out into balls and place them onto parchment paper leaving about 1/2-2 inches apart. Press on a few dark chocolate chips onto the top of the cookie. They will spread out some. Bake for 9-10 mins and then let sit out. After they are cooled, sprinkle some powdered sugar on the top and enjoy!
