Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup (170 grams) semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted
- 1/2 cup (60 grams) all-purpose flour
Sweeteners and Fats:
- 3/4 cup (150 grams) granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup (57 grams) unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup (85 grams) chocolate chips
Dry Ingredients and Seasonings:
- 1/4 cup (25 grams) unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Melt chocolate and butter together in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring until completely smooth and glossy.
- Whisk sugar into the melted chocolate mixture until fully incorporated and slightly glossy.
- Incorporate eggs and vanilla extract, blending thoroughly until the mixture becomes uniform and silky.
- Gently sift cocoa powder, flour, baking powder, and salt directly over the wet ingredients, folding carefully to create a rich, velvety batter.
- Gently fold chocolate chips into the batter, ensuring even distribution throughout the mixture.
- Prepare a parchment-lined baking sheet, using a cookie scoop or spoon to drop uniform rounds of dough, leaving ample space between each cookie.
- Position the baking sheet in a preheated oven at 350°F, baking for approximately 8-10 minutes until the cookie edges appear set but the centers remain delightfully soft and slightly glistening.
- Remove from oven and allow cookies to rest on the baking sheet for a brief moment to firm up slightly.
- Transfer cookies to a wire cooling rack, letting them cool completely to achieve the ideal fudgy texture and intense chocolate flavor.
Notes
- Ensure chocolate is fully melted and cooled slightly before mixing to prevent egg scrambling.
- Use high-quality dark chocolate for richer, more intense flavor and better texture.
- For gluten-free version, swap regular flour with almond or gluten-free flour blend, maintaining same measurement.
- Slightly underbake cookies to achieve that signature fudgy, gooey center characteristic of decadent brownies.
