Equipment

  • Mixing Bowls
  • Hand or stand mixer
  • Microwave-safe bowl
  • Cookie sheet
  • Parchment Paper
  • Wire Rack

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter adds richness and keeps the cookies soft
  • 4 oz semi-sweet chocolate gives deep, fudge-like flavor
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 1 cup granulated sugar sweetens and creates that crackly top
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract adds warmth and depth
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour holds the cookies together
  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt balances the sweetness
  • 3 tbsp cocoa powder intensifies the chocolate flavor
  • 1/8 tsp baking soda adds the right amount of lift

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt butter and chocolate in 30-second intervals until smooth and glossy. Set aside to cool slightly.
  • In a mixing bowl, whip eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract on high speed for 3–5 minutes until pale and airy. This creates the signature crinkled top.
  • Stir the cooled chocolate mixture into the whipped eggs and sugar. Mix gently until smooth.
  • Add flour, salt, cocoa powder, and baking soda. Mix on low or by hand until just incorporated. Batter will be loose and shiny — like brownie batter.
  • Use a small cookie scoop or spoon to portion dough onto baking sheets, leaving space between each. They will spread.
  • Bake for 10 minutes, until edges are set and tops are shiny and cracked. Let cool on the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
  • Enjoy once cooled — rich, chewy, and fudgy cookies in every bite.

Notes

Optional: Add ½ tsp espresso powder to enhance chocolate flavor. Cookies stay chewy for days when stored with a slice of bread. Freeze dough balls for quick future baking!
